Northumbrian Organic Feeds - The Company

Northumbrian Organic Feeds was set up in response to the changing needs of the local farming community, with the demand for fully organic status feeds required for the increasing number of northern and border livestock producers.

Our aim is to produce a quality product that has been grown locally as well as meeting the highest industry standards. Cereals and pulses grown here meet the requirements of the Scottish Quality Cereals (SQC) as well as only purchasing other raw materials from farm assured businesses.

With Universal Feed Assurance Scheme standard it means that we can give the final user the confidence to purchase product in the knowledge that exacting industry standards have been met. No genetically modified materials are used in the operation.

Northumbrian Organic Feeds is a new business that offers locally produced feeds for local needs. Because feeds are primarily intended for local use and raw materials sourced from within the area, costs and food miles are kept to a minimum, further enhanced with the opportunity to self collect.

With the demand particularly from organic sheep producers the second phase of feed production is under way, with the installation of a milling and pelleting plant, which hopefully should be operational for the 2008 feeding season.
