BEEF The majority of our beef is from Beef Shorthorn cattle, which are known for excellent marbling through the meat, leading to superb eating quality. We have a small suckler herd with a pedigree Shorthorn Bull "Wavendon Gulf Stream", known on the farm as Vernon. We are proud to announce that in a taste test of British Traditional Breeds run by "Country Life" magazine (Feb 2009), our Shorthorn Beef was placed 2nd out of the eleven breeds tasted. The Beef Shorthorn Society recently ran an article on our farm & shop in their members magazine.
To supplement our homebred animals, we purchase youngstock from some of the top pedigree Beef Shorthorn herds in the country.
