The Farmers Butcher
Our sparkly NEW Butchery & Farm Shop is based at Swallowfields Farm, in the beautiful New Forest, near Bramshaw, Hampshire. We aim to offer you a quality product, with friendly, professional & knowledgeable service, with an emphasis on LOCAL provenance.
Shop Meat Online
All our shop’s products, wherever possible, are sourced from local businesses or, if unavailable locally, we buy from small ethical producers.
Mike says “ When presented with such an abundance of quality produce on our doorstep it seems an act of treason to look elsewhere for suppliers”

About Us
Butchers With a Difference
Owned by Michael & Sarah Alexander, now in their 8th year of trading, it began as a primarily catering butchery and has evolved into a well-established, highly acclaimed retail farm shop, where local produce takes centre stage.

“It was our first visit yesterday and Tom made us feel incredibly welcome. His knowledge of butchery and cooking helped us make the right purchases, and all the meat was exceptionally good quality, perfect for every occasion. We will be back.. thank you”
“Excellent friendly butcher that cuts the meat to how you want it which is a rare find. Also a great range of prepared meats on display. I can highly recommend the Porchetta, Barnsley lamb chops and the beef short rib. Im very much looking forward to trying the Pannage pork later in the year”
“At long last a delicious gluten-free chicken and mushroom pie .
The pastry was lovely lots of filling.
Will definitely but back for more and to try the beef pie.”
