      Storage

      We deliver all our meat frozen ready for you to put straight into the freezer.

      The only exception to this is at Christmas time we send out some fresh poultry. Information can be found on the 'storage' tab of each product page.

      Yes, all Pipers Farm meat is safe to defrost and refreeze following our defrosting and refreezing guidelines.

      If any of your meat has thawed slightly during transportation it is completely safe to pop straight into your freezer.

      We keep your order in a chilled environment during delivery up until 11pm. It is then out on the road in our clever thermal packaging that stops the temperature from rising above 8C during delivery, so you never have to worry about your food being in transit.

      One of the additional joys of shopping with Pipers Farm is that we are so different to the industrialized, globalised supply chains you find in supermarkets. From the way we rear our animals, right through to how we age, cut and store our meat, every part of our process is very different and the risks associated with harmful bacteria are proportionally so.

      We have tested, trialed and controlled every step of our process for over 35 years to provide you with complete confidence in the food you eat.

      If you have any questions, we're always happy to help give you guidance. Please call us on 01392 881380 and a member of the team will be happy to help you.

      All of our meat can be kept in the freezer for at least 6 months.

      All meat products will last 3-4 days in the fridge.

      However we do recommend that you store all your meat in the freezer and take out what you need when you need it.

      All our Pipers Farm meat is blast frozen at the optimum moment ready for you to pop straight in your freezer.

      Each individual portion is packaged in an outer wrap ready for it to be safely stored in the freezer. On each pack you'll find details of the product, the best before date and any ingredients.

      As you may have noticed, we have recently updated our packaging. We have considered and tested many options to find the best solution that keeps your food at the perfect temperature, prevents food waste, occupies minimal freezer space and, crucially, doesn’t harm our beautiful environment. Our new packaging also supports our ongoing mission to significantly reduce our plastic usage. We would like to reassure you that all our packaging remains curb side recyclable and you can continue to defrost all produce in exactly the same way.

      Christmas

      You can browse our tempting Christmas products, add items to your basket and place your order online. You can also call us to place your order on 01392 881380 and a member of the team will be happy to take this for you.

      We recommend placing your order as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. Items may sell out ahead of Christmas as we only have limited supplies.

      Unfortunately, we are not able to accept special requests or create bespoke cuts. As all our animals are reared in harmony with nature, weights can fluctuate but through our careful planning of carcass balance to reduce any waste, we can ensure enough cuts are available for everyone and nothing is ever wasted.

      We have reserved the final few days for delivery of orders including Fresh Whole birds, as all other items will be sent frozen, we kindly ask you to select an earlier available delivery date

      All items included in your order will be delivered on the selected delivery date. If you would like to receive items sooner, you will need to place two separate orders with separate delivery dates.

      We send Free Range Whole Bronze Turkey, Turkey Crowns and Goose fresh, and we deliver all other meat frozen ready for you to put straight into the freezer.

      This year (2024) we will not be able to cancel or reduce any orders due for delivery after 1st December. This will ensure we can find a home for all the livestock and Poultry. 

      We would suggest ordering as soon as possible to avoid disappointment, Christmas items do sell out and, we are not likely to be replenished once they have sold out.

      When your fresh bird has been delivered, remove it from its paper wrapping.  

      Place the turkey on a wire rack or a plate and put it into the bottom of your fridge, making sure there is plenty of space around it so that the air can circulate. If any juices appear on the plate, tip them away, you want to keep your turkey cold and dry.

      Farming

      Unfortunately you cannot visit Pipers Farm. The farm is Peter and Henri's home, so at this time we cannot offer unguided tours or visits.

      From time to time we do host events and tours on the farm. To be the first to hear about our farm tours and events make sure you are subscribed to our email mailing list.

      Pipers Farm is 55 acres of beautiful permanent pasture with deep hedgerows. At Pipers Farm HQ we rear a herd of native Red Ruby cattle, Suffolk-tup lambs and Swaledale mutton sheep. During the summer months we have a small parcel of Native Breed pigs.

      In addition to the livestock reared at Pipers Farm HQ we also work with 30 incredible farms who grow for us to our exacting standards. You can find out more about our farms by visiting our sustainable farming page.

      Yes, all of our beef, lamb and mutton is 100% grass fed and grass finished.

      Our cattle, lambs and mutton sheep only eat forage and mother's milk for their entire lives. We simply do not believe in feeding them anything else.

      Our free range chicken's diet is made up of straightforward cereals (corn, barley and wheat) and grass, with the emphasis on developing a healthy digestive system. Chickens are monogastric animals, which means they can’t survive on pasture alone – their stomach systems are not sophisticated enough to extract the energy and protein they need. This means nutrient-packed grains and proteins are a crucial part of their diet. We do not use any additives or chemicals in our feed. We want our chickens to grow slowly, healthily and lead a properly free range life.

      Soya is present in the feed for our chickens. We use the minimum amount possible to ensure the welfare of our chickens, this protein is crucial for our birds to thrive while living a properly free range life.

      Traditionally, fishmeal from local ports and harbours would have been fed to chickens instead of soya, however this was outlawed in the 1996 following the outbreak of BSE. Fishmeal, as a by-product of the local, inshore fishing fleet is a totally sustainable source of 'high quality, protected protein'. With the ban in place, it has meant that our local feed mills have had no option but to use soya. 

      We are hopeful that the ban on the use of fishmeal by-products will be lifted. In the meantime we are actively looking at alternatives such as lupins. It is stimulating the challenge to combine the resourcefulness and skills of our local feed millers with our family farmers working these crops into traditional crop rotations. 

      We will continue to actively seek alternatives to soya and remain hopeful for changes in regulations that will allow us to feed our chickens a completely sustainable diet. 

      Our chickens, ducks, turkeys and geese are killed individually in farmyard based slaughterhouses, on most of our farms by the same team that has reared the birds. The humane slaughter of our birds is vitally important to us, we put a great deal of love and care into producing a healthy, happy bird, the last thing we would want is for our birds to have a stressful end to their lives. Every bird is carefully stunned prior to slaughter.

      Our pigs, cattle and sheep are taken a short distance to our local, small farm-based abattoir. This is very important to us - it means that the animals are not stressed, the small team are highly skilled craftsmen, and importantly, the carcasses are in perfect condition to be hung on the bone. Every animal is fully stunned by hand prior to slaughter.

      We are passionate about high welfare slaughter and are part of the campaign for small abattoirs. You can find out more about this here.

      We are completely transparent when it comes to how we slaughter our livestock, if you would like more detailed information we are happy to share this with you. Please do call us on 01392 881 380 or drop us an email to hello@pipersfarm.com we are happy to answer any question you have as we passionately believe in the importance of transparency when it comes to the food we all eat.

      We do not use hormones in our meat.

      It is a common misconception that hormones are used in British meat. Using growth hormones in meat production has been banned in the EU since 1989.

      Currently, the UK has a ban on both producing and importing hormone treated meat, which means no British farmer (no matter the standards) is able to use hormones in the production of their meat. However, there is pressure on the UK Government to lower their standards and allow imports from countries such as US and Australia, meaning hormone treated meat could be available on our shelves.

      Regardless of changes to trade deals and agricultural policy, we will never, ever use hormones in Pipers Farm meat.

      Our Pastured Chicken is a seasonal product, produced by a farm in Devon who have removed soy from the birds’ diet and replaced it with peas and beans to provide the protein element. They can do this as the Pastured Chicken is grown over the warmer months only, meaning there is significantly less requirement of a high protein feed such as soya as the birds are not challenged as much. We wouldn’t be able to rear soy free birds year-round due to the lack of warmth and sunlight in the colder months. Our Pastured Chickens also grow at a slower pace, often reaching 11-13 weeks in comparison to the standard 10 weeks for our Properly Free Range Chicken. This slower pace has an impact on cost, which is why our Pastured Chicken is slightly more expensive.

      Our Pastured Chickens are fed a 100% soy-free diet, with the large majority of their feed being grown less than 10 miles away from where they are farmed. The chicks are out on the pasture between 2-4 weeks old, depending on the weather conditions and time of year.
