Short Chain Week
From 13 to 21 May 2023, the “Short Chain Week” will take place again, during which we will highlight the tasty wealth of our own terroir throughout Flanders.
Honest, sustainable food is no longer a fad. We are increasingly considering the importance of the origin of our food. The direct interaction between producer and consumer allows the farmer to determine his price, method and supply. In exchange for that freedom, you get fresh products with pure, honest flavours every day .
With that vision, I set our figurative arrows on West Flemish Red cattle and Menapii pigs a while back. This week seems to be the perfect moment for you to discover these legendary breeds. And believe me, you can taste our love for the terroir, the craft and our passion for meat right away.
West Flemish Red
After the war, this ultimate terroir cattle almost completely disappeared. In the meantime, the animal, and we ourselves, can once again benefit from the typical characteristics of the Westhoek ecosystem. Each animal lives for at least 6 years in a no-stress environment and calves at least 2 to 3 times. This ensures the typical, dark red meat and the tasty fat . Thanks to our nose-to-tail principle, nothing is wasted. The prime example of the short chain.
