They are a small, family-run farm and cheese company started by Humphrey Errington in the early 1980's. The Family originally moved from Dumfriesshire to Lanarkshire in 1981, running as a mixed farming enterprise of beef cattle and sheep. Humphrey Errington started looking at ways of diversifying and became interested in sheep milking and ewes milk cheese because of the ancient tradition of this activity in the Upper Clyde area, and because it offered the chance to add value to a farm product and be free of dependence on government subsidies.

The farm is just under 300 acres of mixed grazing and arable land on which they try to grow as much as possible themselves, making around 60 acres of barley and 100 acres of silage and hay. Due to the altitude and climate the growing season is fairly short compared with some other areas of the UK though so they concentrate on growing high quality silage and hay to provide the basis of the ewes' diet. In 2012 they installed two 20KW wind turbines to take advantage of the fact that the farm lies in the windiest corner of the windiest country in Europe and to minimise their carbon footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paxton \u0026 Whitfield","offers":[{"title":"250g","offer_id":49298271764802,"sku":"1077","price":16.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g","offer_id":49298271797570,"sku":"1077","price":33.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"750g","offer_id":49298271830338,"sku":"1077","price":49.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg","offer_id":49298271863106,"sku":"1077","price":66.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0848\/3327\/2130\/files\/LarnarkBlue.jpg?v=1770048678"},{"product_id":"yoredale-1","title":"Yoredale","description":"\u003ch3\u003eTaste an Artisanal Wensleydale\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver the last few years, we have seen a small resurgence in artisan Wensleydale production and after much taste testing and research, we came across Curlew Dairy -  the makers of Yoredale.

The word Yarg is simply their surname 'Gray' spelt backwards! The inspiration for this unique cheese came from a 17th century recipe for nettle wrapped cheese found in their attic. In 1984 they sold the recipe to Michael and Margaret Horrell who farmed near Bodmin. The business steadily grew and in 1995 the Horrell family met with the Mead family who were farming in West Cornwall and interested in farm diversification. Catherine Mead worked alongside them to develop the business and in 2006 all production moved entirely to the Mead family farm. Owned by Catherine Mead, Lynher Dairies is now processing 2,000,000 litres of milk a year and making just over 220 tonnes of cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCornish Yarg is very unique due to the handpicked nettle leaves which coat the rind. Three tonnes of nettle leaves are picked during May and June by a team of 50 hand pickers. Cheeses which are made at the time of picking are then wrapped with fresh leaves and the rest of the leaves are then frozen in bundles until they are ready to be used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cheese making process is done by hand using the farm's milk and grass rich milk from carefully selected local Cornish farms. After the milk is pasteurised, a culture is added for ripening and rennet to help the curd set. Once set it is cut and stirred to separate the curd from the whey until each curd piece is as small as a grain of rice, this increases acidity and fermentation. The curd is then milled, blocked and hand packed into moulds, after which the cheese is pressed and immersed in brine overnight. After drying, the nettle leaves are painted on by hand in a concentric circle pattern. Yarg takes about 4-5 weeks to mature, by which time a beautiful white bloom decorates the nettles from naturally occurring moulds attracted to the leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the cheese matures, it develops a delicate, mushroomy taste and a bloomy white appearance. Six weeks from field to finish, Yarg is fresh and creamy with an irresistible crumble in the core. The semi-hard rind is completely edible and adds an earthy, mushroomy flavour to the cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAwards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAwarded Silver at British Cheese Awards 2024.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAwarded Gold at The World Cheese Awards 2019.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA consistent medal-winning cheese for many years, also being awarded two gold medals at the British Cheese Awards 2018.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Paxton \u0026 Whitfield","offers":[{"title":"250g","offer_id":55121811308929,"sku":"133","price":9.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g","offer_id":49298302566722,"sku":"133","price":19.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"750g","offer_id":49298302599490,"sku":"133","price":28.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg","offer_id":49298302632258,"sku":"133","price":38.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0848\/3327\/2130\/files\/CornishYarg.jpg?v=1761214297"},{"product_id":"kirkhams-lancashire","title":"Mrs Kirkham's Lancashire","description":"\u003ch3\u003eButtery British Kirkham's Lancashire Cheese\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Lancashire is made by Graham Kirkham - son of the original 'Mrs Kirkham', in the \"black land of Fylde\" north of Preston in Lancashire.

In the early days Ruth and husband John started the day with the first milking of their herd and then the milk was pumped straight into a small vat in their little dairy next door. This was then turned into cheese. They had only two presses and would make four 20kg cheeses a day and these were waxed and sold monthly to a wholesaler. After the demise of Mrs Kirkhams's original wholesaler in the mid eighties, she started to supply customers directly and also changed the finished coating of her cheeses from wax to cloth bound and then buttered them.
