Yorkshire's Finest Lamb
Shepherds have let their flocks free-roam on The Dales for generations, just as our farmers and smallholders still do today; working with an understanding of and respect for nature, and selecting their breeds accordingly. For all its beauty and bounty, the pastures of The Dales are not for the faint hearted.
The conditions in the Yorkshire Dales are suitable only for hardiest native breeds, well adapted to the terrain and able to withstand the cold in a way commercial lambs can not. Breeds like the iconic Swaledale, the Lonk, Dalesbred and Herdwick, migrate vast distances between valleys and hill tops, foraging as they go. They thrive on the lush grasses, wildflowers and herbs of The Dales; this natural diet and challenging landscape produces a smaller, darker-fleshed lamb with flavours reminiscent of the heathers and herbs on which they have grazed.
