Doing our best, to bring you the best, straight from our farm.
The Farm Shop at Kilnford showcases the very best locally raised meats, delicatessen and foods from around our beautiful region.
All of our meat comes from our large, local mixed farm with land rising from close to sea level at Kilnford up to 700 feet at nearby Ingleston. It is on this high ground that our Belted Galloway cattle and Blackface sheep graze. They live outside all year round and eat the slow maturing grass which is an essential ingredient in producing the natural flavour of our beef and lamb.
Previously, we have used our own farm and herds to produce our pork here at Kilnford Farm. However, due to the recent upheaval of the pig industry our outdoor herd has been forced to close down. After careful consideration, we have decided to source our pigs on a weekly basis from our long term farming friends, the Shaw family at Dryfeholm, Lockerbie. We are confident that the pork is up to the same high standard we strive towards daily at Kilnford.
Shop local – cut your food miles.
Our farm shop has been created by carefully restoring the farm buildings surrounding the courtyard. Local craftsmen, as well as our family and farm staff, have all played a part in rebuilding, carving the sandstone and timber and blending it together with all the best in food technology.
