About us

Pendle Pastures is a multi generational small family farm, within the rolling hills of the Ribble Valley, where we produce the finest tasting nutrient dense food from well nurtured and cared for animals, using regenerative, environmentally beneficial, holistic farm management practices .

Our core belief is that nourishing food can only be derived from ethically, compassionately raised animals, on land that is managed regeneratively, to produce a natural, healthy diet.

Our ethos is that Halal and Tayyib concepts, of mercy and compassion, are essential for the entirety of an animals life, not just their last moments in an abattoir.

That means our food is derived from animals who live a dignified, contented life. Providing food to people who take seriously their own health, but also their duty as stewards, caring respectfully for all inhabitants and creatures on this earth.

Our principles and goals include:

Being as transparent in our food production and farm management as possible.
Providing animals, as they are reared, a dignified, natural life, using them to benefit their environment by building organic matter in the soil to build its health and sequester carbon from the surrounding environment, into the ground.
Encouraging and conserving natural wild life.
Not using artificial fertilisers, herbicides, chemical wormer's or routine medications
Adhering to a high ethical standard of Islamic stewardship with our animals and surrounding environment, in doing so aiming to dispel the contemporary misconceptions about the Islamic treatment of animals.
