The family took on the Weisdale farm more than 80 years ago, later adding the Staneyhill farm in Lerwick to their holdings. The business has been handed down from generation to generation ever since. Today they source and finish top quality store cattle from all over Shetland either through the local marts or directly from trusted local partners.
They also rear flocks of purebred native Shetland sheep. These are reared for the fine yarn Shetland is world famous for and meat of outstanding quality and flavour. A flock of Shetland Cheviot or Texel crosses are also kept and bred with Suffolk rams to produce either commercial store or finished lambs.
The family's premium quality finished beef, lamb and mutton are sold into the market either direct, farm to fork, or through local craft butchers. Their store animals head to mainland Scotland to be finished in Aberdeenshire.
