Who we are
About the farm
We have been farming at Heald Green near Cheadle, Cheshire, since the 1930s: the farm was founded by William and Mary Nixon with a milking herd and a small butchery, and today it is run by the third generation of the Nixon family. We rear our own cattle, pigs and lambs and prepare the meat in our on-site butchery (beef is matured on the carcass for at least 21 days), selling it in our farm shop alongside produce from local suppliers. Our tea rooms cook with ingredients from our shop and butchery; visitors can see our sheep, goats and alpacas, bottle-feed lambs in spring and pick their own pumpkins in October, and we also have indoor and outdoor play areas.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
