Welcome to our online shop!

Based in North Shropshire, our regenerative farmland has been registered organic with the Soil Association since 2006, and has been chemical free since the end of the second world war. The mixed topography and diverse landscape running alongside the River Tern gives us the perfect setting to raise our cattle, sheep and pigs. We work with nature and not against it.

We are based on England's very first community farm. Fordhall Farm was saved by over 8,000 people back in 2006. The Fordhall Community Land Initiative own the land and now rent the farm to our tenant farmer Ben, who manages the livestock and runs the farm shop.

Today, we have our own on-site butchery, farm shop and online shop, from which we sell our own meat and local produce. We look forward to giving you a slice of what we have on offer from the comfort of your own home, but remember you are more than welcome to visit us in person too!

November promotion

This festive season, make poultry the centerpiece of your table. We offer a wide range of options to suit every household, from whole birds to small turkey breast joints and everything in between.

Our poultry is reared on trusted local farms with a focus on slow growth and high welfare standards. We offer traditional whole Turkeys, Turkey crowns and Turkey breasts, and if you're looking to try something a little different we have 3-bird roasts and Duck too!

What’s happening on the farm this month?

The 2 tups (Breeding Rams) have entered the field with our breeding ewes in the hope that we have lambs born at the end of February. The timing of lambs being born is a really important time on a farm but more often than not success is in the hands of mother nature.

We also have a couple of expectant mother sows who are due to farrow (give birth) in the coming month, typically a healthy mother sow will give birth to 10 or so piglets per litter.

TOAD IN THE HOLE
from Sophie R, Shropshire

A hearty winter warmer which we’ve all grown up on.

This delicious recipe comes from Sophie who likes to include a dash of mustard in the batter to give it that little extra taste, and is certain that a final whisk of the batter just before it goes into the baking dish is the secret to a light and fluffy Toad In The Hole!
