The Eggshed

Общая информация

We are, through choice, a small privately run family business supported by a highly motivated and inspired team, affording us close control over the quality of our products using time-honoured cooking practices working by hand to produce quality food in an environmentally and socially responsible manner returning food production to its inspirational roots.

We aspire:

To keep welfare our priority, sourcing local free-range products direct from the farmers and producers
To produce top quality food in tune with the seasons with full traceability and provenance
To build an ethically sound sustainable business
To reinstate the humble Scotch egg as Britain’s favourite snack food

Since launching our idea at the Teme Valley Farmers' Market in June 2003 with just half a dozen varieties we have now developed over 40 (yes 40!) unique imaginative recipes for your indulgence...

It’s been quite a roller coaster ride, don’t honestly think we appreciated what we had created, highlights along the way include winning the 'Best New Producer 2005' category in the Flavours of Herefordshire awards and since then have gained a number of Great Taste Awards, a Diamond Award from HEFF and a selection of stand/stall prizes at events and shows around the country.

Over the years we have been extremely lucky with the publicity and support we have gained through local and national newspaper, magazines and TV programs one highlight that stands out is a fab visit Penny and Neil had to Chris Evans and his Radio 2 Drive-time show in November 09 (8 million plus listeners- a fact gladly not shared with us at the time, think the interview may well have fallen apart!)

You can get your fix at loads of shows, fairs and markets as listed in our on-line diary, as well as an ever growing number of specialist deli's and farm shops around the country, not forgetting our own shop here at THE EGGSHED.
