FARMER Luxton's shop, started by the farming Luxton family four years ago, is going from strength to strength – and can now be found online.

The shop is stocked with beef and lamb from the Luxton family farm at Stockley and prides itself on the quality of its produce, which, as Stuart Luxton says, 'if it's not from here, it's from somewhere near'.

The website launched the same week as Okehampton Show, where the shop has had its own stand for the first time.

Stuart said: 'We get a lot of customers coming in to the shop on holiday and asking how they could get our meat when they went home.

'We didn't have much of a web presence up until now, but now people can go on line and order and they have their produce delivered, in poly boxes with ice packs, within 24-hours.

'We have a really good local customer base, but the website will provide another shop window for us.'

Okehampton Show proved to be a good day for Farmer Luxton's. Not only did the family scoop the champion cow and calf prize, their stand won first prize in the general retail, plants and produce section.
