Winner of Countryside Alliance "Rural Oscars" Best Local Food Producer in the South West

“Jo and Robin received many nominations and what struck me was that their friendliness and support for their community was mentioned every bit as much as the quality of their produce.

One nomination said “Their beef is the best I have ever tasted” – which is an exceptional testament to the company. The meat is fully traceable and properly hung and this traditional approach is hugely popular. People want down-to-earth high produce, quality and service and that’s what you get here. The Farley cows and the Farley community are equally lucky to have Jo and Robin.”

The Traditional Beef Company has been presented with a coveted Gold Star Great Taste Award for its Sirloin Steak.

The Great Taste Awards, organised by the Guild of Fine Food, are now in their 18^th year and going from strength to strength. 7481 products were entered from 1600 companies for the 2011 Great Taste Awards. It took 350 experts 34 days to blind taste all the entries and decide.
