      Why we love this

      • PROPERLY FREE RANGE

      • There are few things in life more welcoming than the scent of a roast chicken, it has to be the ultimate comfort food, the sort of food that brings people together around the table.

        Our Properly Free Range Whole Chicken is such a family staple, with each person preferring their own bit, from the sweet gamey leg meat to the delicately textured breast, not forgetting the fight over the sought after chicken oyster.

        Over the years we have become famous for our Properly Free Range Chickens. We are passionate about the life our chickens lead, which we know results in the most wonderful, unique flavour - chicken as it should be. 

        We take time to develop a real depth of flavour in our birds. They eat a wholesome, healthy diet foraging amongst pasture and woodland,  creating that wonderful flavour that we have become famous for.

        "How real farmyard chicken used to taste and should now."

        "Crispy golden skin and moist breast - really tasty."

      How are your free range poultry kept?

      Our free range chickens are free to roam outside on woodland pastures in natural light, and with the freedom to display their natural instincts such as scratching for food and dust bathing. These contented birds have properly developed bones and muscles and a strong natural immunity from scratching and pecking in the soil.
