The Blue Texel

Evening all. I am hoping to start producing Turkeys and sell direct off the farm the end of this year. I appreciate Xmas has not long gone but I just wondered if any of you would be interested in buying straight off the farm? Beef and pork all homebred will also be available (same quality as before,) plus all sausages etc.
I’m not asking for any orders just if any of you may be interested.
Please PM me if you have an interest. Many thanks, Chris.

Morning all. I will be opening the shop today from 9-2 for anyone that would like a bargain from the remaining deli stock. Everything must go.

Shop will be shut at 2pm today, all deli stock 50% off…come and fill your boots while you still can!

Morning all.

Due to high demand the last few weeks the stock levels have ran down a lot quicker than anticipated. For this reason I am anticipating this to be our final week of trading. We will have the normal stock for the remainder of this week albeit slightly more limited.

I am also offering 50% off all deli stock to clear.

To all of my customers.

It is with a very heavy heart that I send out this message. Very sadly I’ve made the decision to close the shop.

The last 2 years have been particularly difficult for us. With the forever rising running costs it’s made it less attractive as times gone on. We have also had to deal with road closures on all corners at various times which has impacted trade!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your custom over the years. Despite having to close, I have taken great pleasure in serving you with the finest of produce from the farm and hearing all the great feedback.

It’s been a very emotional decision for me to make and one that I am struggling with! I would like to close by the end of august 2023. We will continue with normal stock for the next few weeks and then begin to wind down.

For any of you that wish to fill your freezers one last time please call us at the shop so we can help.

I would also like to thank the staff, past and present, for all they have done for me and their loyalty to the shop. I have learnt a huge amount from you over the years and you’ve become an extended family to me!

Thanks again, I wish you all the best for the future.

Chris and The Blue Texel team.

Morning all and happy new year. We are back open from today but unfortunately the phone lines are down so we can’t take card payment at the moment. This should be resolved by late morning.
