Am looking at trying to buy my veg and meat from a Farm Shop as they are supposed to be better quality and cheaper.
Just wondering if anyone has been/know if there is a decent one in the Wigan/Standish area.

Get your meat from Chadwick's in Standish.
It's more of a family butcher, but absolute quality. |

I went to a farmers market @ holland hall last year which was excellent. as for a farm shop for meat, there is a place out near ormskirk (bit further than wigan/standish) called Forsters Organic Meats (i think thats the name). we bought some stuff from them @ the market at it was top quality

chadwicks is good but its a complete rip off. one of the stalls on the market is cheaper and is of comparible quality |

chadwicks is very expensive compared to what you would pay in a supermarket. morrisons is the best supermarket for quality of meat but it is always going to be better from a farm/independant butcher |

Cheers for the info. Shame that there isn't one in Wigan/Standish area though. You would think there would be.
I'll have a look on the link and try one out.

Try England's in Pem, also a shop in Billinge
Meat from independent butchers is bound to cost more than the tasteless cack served up by the multinational faceless money generators like Tesco. Keep it local!!!

That's what i'm trying to do, but with working Mon-Fri in Manchester by the time i get home shops are closed.
That's why i thought somewhere in Wigan would have a farm shop to nip to on a Saturday morning. But looking at it, it's going to be a bit of a drive to get my veg. |
