Field&Flower

What's in the box: A box you build yourself from free-range British meat, including dry aged beef and lamb, plus optional fresh fish landed in Brixham.

Field & Flower is a British meat and fish delivery service. It sells free-range meat sourced directly from farmers and sends it fresh, not frozen, in temperature controlled boxes. You build your own box by choosing the cuts you want, and there is also a seasonal Christmas box. The focus is firmly on provenance. The company says its meat is traceable from farm to fridge, that it pays farmers fairly, favours native and heritage breeds, and keeps the distance to the abattoir short. Beef and lamb are dry aged, and the fish is landed in Brixham, Devon. It describes its welfare standards as going beyond free-range, and the business is founder owned and run. The main drawback is that the homepage does not state prices, delivery frequency or subscription terms, so you will need to start building a box to see the real cost and how flexible the plan is. As with most high welfare, small farm suppliers, you should expect to pay more than supermarket prices. Field & Flower suits UK households who cook regularly and care where their food comes from. If welfare, traceability and supporting British farms matter more to you than the lowest price, it is well worth a look.
