Woodlands Jersey Beef

Hampshire Beef Producers - Woodlands Farm

The award winning Woodlands Jersey Beef, based in the beautiful Meon Valley in Hampshire, is dedicated to the ethical production of prime quality Hampshire beef from Jersey steers. The Woodlands herd of pedigree Jersey steers is run by Jane and Paul Denley and sold throughout Hampshire Farmers Markets directly from our farm.

Our ethically produced beef has recently been widely praised in the national media. We have also been awarded the Good Calf Commendation Award, by Compassion in World Farming in September 2012!!

Woodlands Farm

Our Beef farm is situated near the medieval village of Wickham in Hampshire. The land has been farmed and cultivated for years and is now maintained as a family run, beef farm. All of our beef is produced on an ethically sound, high welfare basis and is hung for four weeks to give exceptional succulence and flavour.

We sell a range of individual Hampshire Beef Cuts, Joints and Products at Hampshire Farmers Markets. We also offer a complete range of Beef Boxes from our online shop

We have been rearing and producing Prime Woodlands Jersey Beef for over 8 years. Jersey Bull calves are considered a by-product of the dairy industry as they can never be used to produce milk, so they are often culled at birth.

We buy these calves from the dairy farmers and give them two and a half years of happy life at Woodlands Farm Cottage instead.

For the first few months the calves live in small groups in straw bedded stables with access to an outdoor play area while they are being hand reared on milk replacer, then once they are weaned at 3-4 months, they go out to pasture in our fields throughout the Meon Valley, to graze and relax in the sunshine or wander in to the barns if its a rainy day.

The meat produced from these grass fed free range Jersey Steers is superlative quality, and well worth the extra effort. Don't just take our word for it....we supply our Woodlands Jersey Beef to many top class restaurants including Michel Roux Jnr's restaurant, Le Gavroche in Mayfair..... Fat Olives in Emsworth, The Black Rat, and The Richmond Arms Emsworth.
