Wild Young Grouse
Wild Young Grouse
Grouse season runs from 12th August to 10th December
Grouse is the finest and most prized of the game birds. This unique and special game bird is found in Britain alone.
With rich dark meat and deep almost wine like flavour grouse is truly spectacular. Grouse live on a complex diet of heather, bilberries and insects. They are as natural as a food can possibly come.
The grouse is so natural that they are all entirely wild. Only the land is managed. When there is a bad breeding season there is no shooting.
This is what makes the grouse such a special bird both to see and to eat.
Our local area the Yorkshire Dales is probably the most famous and prized area for grouse shooting in the world. Managed moorland is one of the most ecologically valuable landscapes in the UK, home to majestic and rare birds especially the curlew and plover.

All our meat is delivered frozen.
We deliver it to you in insulated sustainable wool packaging that can keep it frozen for 72hrs. When you receive your meat please put it straight in the freezer. Even if it has defrosted it is ok to put back in the freezer as long as it is not warm.
We deliver it frozen for a number of critical reasons:
- Natures preservative. Freezing is one of the most ancient of all methods of preservation. We firmly believe that when frozen rapidly there is no loss of quality in the meat.
- Sustainability. By freezing our meat we can ensure there is as close to zero waste as possible. Our meat is frozen as soon as it is butchered in protective packaging that allows us to keep the meat perfectly for over a year. This is vs 10 days for fresh.
- Seasonality. Like vegetables, meat has a season. By freezing our meat we can select our produce when it is at its very best. Fresh meat butchers cannot do this and you can taste the difference in our meat.
- Better supporting farmers. For our farmers it is most profitable for them to get the produce off the farm as soon as it is ready. This allows us to support them better.
