Matthew and Claire – Sheep

Category: Farmers

Matthew, the shepherd, looks after a flock of around 400 Organic Pedigree Hampshire Downs. His wife Claire and his three daughters are very much a part of his work; whether it’s counting sheep or delivering lambs, it’s a real family affair. They recently won three gold stars at the Great Taste Awards for their organic lamb – meaning his lamb was among the very best the judges tried. Matt has two lambing seasons per year, in January and April. His flock graze on the undulating organic pasture around the farm.
