Fosse Meadows Farm

About Fosse Meadows Farm

We are farmers of traditional, very #slow-grown and #free-range #chickens, #cockerels, #turkeys and #geese to bring the superior flavour and higher welfare back for discerning taste buds.

Fosse Meadows Farm Description

The Ball family has been farming in the village of Frolesworth for over 100 years and is still farming the land on the same principles of crop rotation as it was when the family started. David Ball is now passing on his knowledge to Jacob and I as we extend the farm into producing free-range turkeys and chickens. . . at the moment we are apprentices for my father and are yet to call ourselves farmers!

We are members of the Traditional Farm Fresh Turkey Association who have strict controls over diet and bird welfare, we are also recommended by Henrietta Green's 'Food Lovers Britain'.

#didyouknow we not only produce very #slowgrown (at least 2 weeks longer than #organic), French breed, totally #freerangechickens - but we also produce #cockerels, the same breed, raised to the same high standards but grown on at least another 2 weeks. Our cockerels have total freedom on our farmland, foraging on clover rich pasture, in hedgerows, under trees...or exploring the hay bales in the barn! Our Fosse Meadow Cockerel has been awarded Great Taste Awards prestigious вӯҗ...пёҸвӯҗпёҸвӯҗпёҸ #greattasteaward and received some fantastic praise from the rounds of judges! рҹҗ“рҹҗ”рҹ’ҡвҳҳпёҸ These cockerel have generous meat, richer, slightly darker meat on the legs and the extra maturity provides fat marbling through the meat, for a #delicious rich flavour and succulent texture. Perfect for a family #roast!рҹҳҚрҹҳӢ We have cockerels available on our #LondonFarmersMarkets or alternatively visit our website (link in bio) to order via our online shop. You can collect from the Farmgate, our stall at farmers markets or choose home delivery on Thursdays! (For a limited period we have free delivery on orders over ВЈ45 online).
