Our Story

Nestled in the heart of Norfolk, Norfolk & Better is a 1,500-acre traditional mixed farm producing high-quality, ethically reared food with full traceability. Once solely arable, our farm has grown into a thriving, diverse operation, where we rear and butcher our own meat, craft award-winning cheeses, mill our own flour, and will soon be pressing our own oil—all on-site for unbeatable quality and minimal food miles.

Founded by entrepreneur Dr. Peter Dawe, the farm is now run with his son, Alex Dawe, alongside a passionate and dedicated team. Together, we are committed to sustainable farming, exceptional animal welfare, and producing food with true provenance.

Our Farming Philosophy

We believe great food starts with great farming. Our approach is built on:

Wildlife & Biodiversity – We actively plant hedgerows and create natural habitats to support local wildlife.
Animal Welfare – Our animals are grass-fed or woodland-reared, allowed to mature naturally, and raised to the highest welfare standards.
Farm-to-Table Production – Everything we sell is made right here on the farm, ensuring full traceability and exceptional quality.

Great value and superior quality to any supermarket. You can’t beat local produce – this is on your doorstep.

The Ribeye had the most incredible marbling, the beef wasn’t like any we’ve had before the taste was second to none, if you haven’t tried the Jagyu, you must!
