Farm shop snaps up champion beef

- Published: 19 December, 2006

Double helpings of champion beef could be rivalling the traditional turkey in West Yorkshire on 25 December after the two winning entries at local Christmas livestock shows were both bought by Keelham Hall Farm Shop at Thornton, Bradford.

The prime beef from the two locally reared champion Limousin-cross animals will be on sale in plenty of time for the festive season, said Victoria Robertshaw, who runs the family-owned farm shop on Brighouse and Denholme Road with her brother James.

"We believe very strongly in selling excellent local produce," sais Robertshaw. "When it comes to beef, you can really taste the difference. We set out to secure the very best beef available in the area for our customers, not just at Christmas, but also at all times of the year.
