Grass Fed Restaurant

Available for over a year

A farm rearing slow-grown, pasture fed, organic beef cattle is making it pay by selling the meat in their own restaurant. Lilliput Farm in Somerset near Bath, site of the Battle of Lansdown in 1643 and with links to Jonathan Swift, has been farmed with nature in mind for 26 years. The Stanley family raise beef cattle on their pastureland, feeding them only grass all year round. Compared to conventional beef cattle, they take longer to be ready for slaughter and so are more expensive to produce. With costs rising and environmental farm payments from the Government looking uncertain, they’ve taken on a new venture and opened their own farm restaurant to sell their beef. Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
