It’s all about taste!

Most people view food, particularly meat and eggs, as a commodity with a known price which can be checked at a supermarket or on a price comparison site.

Unfortunately, that is a simplistic view and it ignores taste and quality or provenance. Just because something looks pretty much the same doesn’t mean it tastes the same. I can assure that for all the pictures or smiling farmers (or actors) and claims on supermarket packets there is no better way or buying food that knowing the producer by first name.

With my meat the proof is in the eating and my price reflects how my animals live, what breeds they are and what they eat. Some of my cuts are a bit dearer pound for pound than generic meat, some a lot cheaper, and some cuts like like my bone-in leg roasts you just cannot buy without knowing me, the farmer.

Unlike supermarkets, I can say exctly what breeds I have and give the food miles from my farm to your door. You can also be sure that my meat is fresh and bagged the morning of the market.

I give iscounts for regular orders and ‘meat boxes’ so you can have my quality every week cost effectively and without the time and cost of shopping about. This means you get the meat when it is ready and you can even ask me to rear an animal specially for you so you can have top quality for a wedding, family party or to make your own bacon, ham or sausages at home.

If you want food to taste good and have real satisfaction come and see me, Kristian Shaw, at 24 Carrots Farmers Market in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter on the 3rd Saturday of the month or call me on 07804 398 219 to pre-order for collection or home delivery.
