‘Traditional Herefords, a rare native breed at risk of disappearing. A hardy, slow growing breed with great marbling and taste
These animals are part of a project to restore wildflower meadows and heathlands across the Forest of Dean
We have lost 97% of our wildflower meadows. They are now an incredibly rare and delicate habitat, important for a huge number of species. Cattle play a vital role in the ecological balance to restore the remaining fragments of unique habitat
These animals are reared slowly on a diet of wildflower herbs and grasses. Deep rooting, varied plants mean lots of nutrients are drawn from deep in the soil producing nutrient dense, healthy meat’ Alex Crawley | Director www.grazingmanagement.co.uk
Alex will talk to us about re-wilding, boosting biodiversity, wild meadow beef, native beef breeds, rearing rare steer using high welfare husbandry, their impact on the ecosystem and land.
11.45am to 12.15pm
‘Old Cuts in a butcher's shop often refer to traditional or less commonly used cuts of meat that have been overshadowed by popular choices. These cuts might require different cooking methods to achieve optimal tenderness and flavour. Exploring old cuts can be a delightful culinary adventure, offering unique textures and tastes beyond the familiar options found in modern butcher displays.’ Jon Pritchard and Karl Davis / Directors FB: themeathut
