Christmas is coming fast !

We are now taking bookings for our snow geese for Christmas. The finished weights will be approximately 4-6kg @ £12.45/kg. If your not sure what weight you require tell us the number to feed and we can allocate a suitable one.
We ask for a deposit of £20 to secure your goose, which can then either be delivered alongside your box Christmas week or collected from the farm shop.

Also this year we are going to keep the down and feathers and if you would be interested in having some to make quilts, sleeping bags, duvets etc let us know. Usually the feathers get sent to China, where they are sorted, processed into duvets etc and shipped all the way back to this country. Follow this link to find out about the Snow Geese.

Monday 8th August Foot and Mouth Disease

The farm shop at Warborne is open as normal for customers to come shopping although we have taken the precaution of a disinfected entrance when you enter the farm. Because we are unable to send any animals to the abattoir we may start to run low of certain cuts of pork and lamb. Beef should not be a problem.
