James Alexander Fine Foods brings together the very best produce that Cumbria has to offer. We work together closely with our local producers not only to help promote their products to a wider audience outside of Cumbria & beyond, but above all to find and bring to you the very best Cumbria produces.
We are passionate about Cumbria and the Lake District - one of the most beautiful parts of Britain. It's unique climate, its rolling hills and downs covered with sweet scented heathers, clover, and brackens produce happy animals, and that leads to tender, succulent and amazingly tasty products. Discover the delights of Organic Lamb from Mansergh Hall, described by the Sunday Times as being "The tenderest and tastiest lamb you're ever most likely to eat" - October 2005, revive the taste of a real organic free roaming chicken from Lowther Park Farms White Ranger, taste our unique Cumbrian Salamis and hams, and enjoy the best local sauces, relishes, fruits, bakes and much more.
We are also passionate about our producers, their lively hoods, their attention to detail, and their excellent hand-made products. By coming to James Alexander Fine Foods you can meet our farmers and producers.
Now that we know where the best Cumbrian foods come from so can you, and see our seasonal recipes to really enjoy cooking these great regional specialities.
Buying direct from source via James Alexander your chosen fresh, seasonal produce is all delivered straight to your door. (See individual products for further details.)
