Where the free range chicken should be there was a sign saying that they were sorry, but due to the high demand for free range chicken since the channel 4 programme they couldn't keep up with demand and were sourcing more free range chicken as soon as they could (or words to that effect as I was slightly distracted by chatty customer ) _________________ xxx Mrs G xxx Back to top tooty942 Mini-Neepster Joined: 23 Jul 2007 Posts: 48 Location: boyndlie Posted: Tue Jan 29, 2008 10:20 pm    Post subject: i buy really good free range chickens from 'the farm shop' at foveran.  they are from a farm in banchory.   i found the lady there really helpful and she explained where everything in the shop came from and the was they produce the beef which they sell in the shop also.

They sell locally produced beef, pork and venison too, I think.  They  do the farmers markets in Montrose and Forfar too.

The meat's a lovely colour and I'm really looking forward to eating it. But I'm not selling it, so that doesn't really help, does it? _________________ ^^^My biggest recycling project^^^ Back to top Cassiepod Neepster Joined: 09 Jul 2007 Posts: 155 Location: By Banchory Posted: Wed Feb 13, 2008 12:30 pm    Post subject: Tilquihillie by Banchory are great, but I don't know if they get that far anorht, alhough they do some of the farmers markets.
