Happy New Year from Partridge Farm!!

What a year 2012 has been for us on Partridge Farm. It's been a rollercoaster journey from start to finish although we most certainly don't look back with any regrets.

We have had an amazing time starting up our market stalls in Tiverton, Dartington, Hatherleigh and Minehead. Thoroughly enjoyed having stalls at a few of the Spring & Summer Fayres. Met many likeminded people and made some very good friends.

The butchery is now up & running and our new home-cured bacon has been flying off the shelves along with our chorizos and cured hams!! I have loved making all the sausage rolls for events and to order for many of our customers & Having a kitchen full of delicious smells at various times of the year when i have made stews and other delicous ready meals has been a test of my will power to not eat or tuck into the yummy food!!!

We have really enjoyed running the Partridge Farm  Barbeque at a few very well supported events this Summer/Autumn and look forward to this Spring when we will be back out there with our delicious Aberdeen Angus beef burgers and Rare breed Sausages cooking away to feed all our customers!

The farm despite being very wet and muddy is finally working how we want it to work & we have some exciting plans for 2013. Our cattle are looking very good and are now all in their barns for Winter, we look forward to a drier Spring and getting them back onto their lush green fields. Our first lot of sheep are in their barns for lambing and we have now begun the exciting process again!! As for the pigs, we now have 1 fantastic pedigree Large Black boar & 4 pedigree breeding sows. They are looking fabulous and have had 2 healthy litters since Christmas to start the New year perfectly!

Here's to an exciting and prosperous year ahead... Bring on 2013!!! Happy New year to you all xx
