At Edge and Son, our commitment to high-quality, sustainable, and ethical meat begins with our very own farm, Storeton Belted Galloways. Nestled in the heart of the Wirral, this farm is home to our herd of Belted Galloway cattle, a heritage breed renowned for their hardiness, rich flavour, and exceptional meat quality. Here’s how our farm-to-fork process sets us apart.
Storeton Belted Galloways was born from the passion of Tom and Jess Bowling, co-owners of Edge and Son, for farming and sustainable food. What started as a small endeavor has grown into a thriving herd of Belted Galloway cattle. When Tom and Jess took over Edge and Son, they saw the perfect opportunity to bring their farm and butchery business together. Now, Storeton Belted Galloways is an integral part of what we do, providing premium, home-reared beef with unparalleled traceability and care.
Our cattle are raised on lush, natural pastures, grazing freely throughout the year. A grass-fed diet is essential not only for the health of the cattle but also for the quality of the beef. It ensures the meat is rich in flavor, high in nutrients, and has a unique marbling that you won’t find in grain-fed alternatives.
We pride ourselves on keeping food miles to an absolute minimum. Our farm is just a short drive from our butchery in New Ferry, ensuring the journey from farm to shop is as short and stress-free as possible. By keeping everything local, we reduce our environmental impact and maintain the freshest possible meat for our customers.
Our farm-to-fork philosophy means we oversee every stage of the process, from rearing our cattle to butchering and preparing the final cuts of meat. This gives us full control over the quality and ensures complete traceability. You can be confident that every cut of beef from Edge and Son is reared with care, butchered with skill, and prepared with you in mind.
The welfare of our animals is our top priority. Our cattle live longer, healthier lives compared to conventional farming systems, and we ensure they are treated with respect at every stage of their journey. From the moment they are born on the farm to their humane slaughter at our in-house abattoir, every step is designed to minimize stress and maximize quality.
Belted Galloway beef isn’t just a choice for flavor—it’s a choice for sustainability and quality. Known for its succulent texture and distinctive taste, it’s a cut above the rest, making it the perfect centerpiece for any meal.
At Storeton Belted Galloways, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a way of life. By raising a heritage breed and practicing traditional farming methods, we’re preserving both biodiversity and farming traditions for future generations. Every purchase you make from Edge and Son supports these values, helping us create a better future for farming, animals, and the planet.
When you choose Edge and Son, you’re not just buying meat—you’re supporting a farm, a family, and a legacy of quality and care that dates back to 1844. From our farm to your fork, we’re proud to bring you the best.
