The counter and online store run from grass fed and dry aged beef through Golden Herd UK Wagyu to free range pork, Iberico and Basque Ibaiama pork, grass fed lamb and free range poultry. Beyond the meat there are artisanal cheeses, organic dairy and butter, raw honey and smoked and cured produce. You can visit the shop in person or order online for nationwide delivery, with next day delivery on orders placed by 11am Wednesday to Saturday.
  2. 2The Natural Hive Company LimitedHoney farm in Billericay4.8 (58 reviews)The Natural Hive Co is a honey and beeswax business based at Barleylands Farm park in Billericay. The aim is to keep things simple and natural, with pure honey straight from their hives, plus chutneys and jams that pair the sweetness of freshly harvested honey with savoury ingredients. The range also takes in beeswax candles and wax melts, beekeeping equipment and a beekeeper's starter kit, all sold through the online shop. If you want to get closer to the bees, book one of the beekeeping experiences and spend a morning with the beekeepers learning the craft from A to Z.
  3. 3Deersbrook FarmDeersbrook FarmButcher in Braintree4.5 (64 reviews)Deersbrook Farm is a family run farm at Shalford Green near Braintree in Essex, producing 100% grass fed British beef and rare breed, free range pork.

Buy at the shop, or order meat boxes for collection or national delivery, from a taster box up to larger family selections. There are also dinner kits, BBQ packs and a monthly meat box that adds local free range chicken, lamb and wild game to the farm's own beef and pork.
  4. 4Hoyle's HoneyHoyle's HoneyHoney farm in Brentwood4.8 (27 reviews)Hoyle's Honey is run by Richard and Sarah Hoyle from the family farm at Navestock Side in Essex, where the Hoyle family has farmed since the 1950s. Their bees forage naturally from hives positioned on the best sites across their own and neighbouring farms, and the raw honey is never overheated or pasteurised, so every year's harvest is its own vintage. Locals can pop in to the honesty shop at the farm gate on Princes Road, where the whole range is sold including the popular 1kg jar and 1.5kg bucket. Bring the correct money, as there is nobody there to give change. The award winning honey, and bee pollen too, can also be ordered nationwide through the online shop.

Two acres of vegetables supply a box scheme, three markets a month, the farm shop and Manningtree Wholefood Store, and the animals provide grass fed beef and lamb, organic undyed knitting yarn and sheepskins. Open days, educational walks and courses in biodynamics run through the year, and the gardens, fields and facilities are all wheelchair accessible.
