How Tess and Steve got into producing Portland Sheep and why they chose this particular product
Located on the land overlooking the beautiful village of Milton Abbas; Steeptonbill Farm is nestled deep in the Dorset countryside, a perfect location for a 140 strong flock of Portland Sheep. In 2009 Tess Evans and Steve Gould moved their flock of Portland Sheep from the Fleet, near Portland, to Steeptonbill Farm with the aim of building a mixed livestock farm, with an emphasis on healthy, happy animals, reared naturally on the rolling hills of North Dorset. The sheep are allowed to graze freely on the grass surrounding the farm, rich with herbage of all kinds. Portland sheep are slow to mature, and so through careful observation and letting the sheep graze to their hearts content, Tess and Steve are able to guarantee the mutton and hogget produced has a flavour that is second to none.
