Local Produce
Gask House Eggs
The Gask House hens and ducks are semi-free-range in that the local fox and badger put and end to their total freedom so now an electric fence surrounds the hen coop and runs. The hens do get out most days to forage but only under close supervision. The Gask House Labradors are being trained to herd the hens and ducks, but that continues to be a work in progress!
Birchwood Croft
Beef and Croft produce
Produced in Strathnairn. Free local delivery available.
Birchwood Croft is situated in Strathnairn and is a family run Croft by Tim and Beth Rose. Although they specialise in beef, throughout the year you can find a variety of cattle, chickens, pigs, sheep, and bees. They also manage a polytunnel, a vegetable and a fruit garden plus an orchard from which they sell seasonal fruit and veg boxes. In addition there is a selection of chutneys, relishes and jellies which can be enjoyed throughout the year.
All the meat from Birchwood is reared on the Croft with the main produce being beef. They send their beef to the market at about 30 months which they say "can take patience but is well worth the wait for the flavour". Beth and Tim freeze all their meats and most are vacuum packed to ensure quality and flavour. All cuts are individually priced.
If you would like to pre-order any meat or other produce from the Croft, please contact Beth to check availability first. All contact details are on their website (below) and Facebook page .
