How do we keep our quality?
 
Beef
Marches Quality Meat producers look after their cattle in the old fashioned way. The cattle are bred from beef breeds cows and mated with pure bred beef bulls to produce "marbled" meats thus offering better cooking quality and flavours.
All animals are single suckled and graze with their mothers in the rich grassland of the Marches, and mature slowly, again ensuring the meat has an ideal texture. All winter feeds are based on natural and healthy diets, excluding undesirable feeds.
Experienced farmers care for their animals to the highest standards of welfare, ensuring that they live in a stress free environment.

Sheep
The natural grassland of the Marches provide the perfect environment for lamb production. Many families have farmed sheep in the Marches for years, using traditional farming practices that have been passed down from generation to generation. Many of the characteristic features of the Marches countryside have evolved from these sustainable and balanced farming methods.
All Marches Quality Meat lambs are reared naturally, and as with our cattle producers all sheep producers adhere to nationally recognised farm assurance schemes, giving you that extra confidence in the food you buy.

Pigs
Our pig producers pay constant attention to the comfort and well being of the pigs they keep. They combine both legislative and voluntary measures to ensure a stress free environment. Our producers abide by legislation yet to be introduced for other major pig producing countries within Europe.
They work hard perfecting production techniques and installing modern technologies to ensure that their pigs enjoy a life of contentment.

Working with selected processors, best practice of Marches Quality Meat producers can trace each individual animal back to the farm of origin. Every attention is given to animals during transportation, and by using local processors, travelling times are kept to a minimum reducing stress.
Quality just doesn't happen, it is made to happen by a dedicated group of farmers - Marches Quality Meat farmers!!!
