Livestock update

Five christmas turkeys arrived today, neurotic as usual and rather small ... they've got a lot of growing to do over the next three and a half months!

Gorgeous new hand-finished cards in

We've just taken delivery of some very original new stock from Joanne Wishart, an artist from the East-coast village of Tynemouth. All of British wild birds, they are printed on torn-effect paper and mounted on high quality textured board.

New Fine Art card collection arrives

This month we have significantly boosted our range of art cards with a new selection from the Robertson Collection and we know you like them as they started selling the moment we added them to the site! Find them in Orchard's favourite "themes" of seaside, birds and Scotland, or type RC- into the text search box.

Four weeks old ...

I'm always amazed by the rate at which the chicks grow, ours (see entry below) have at least quadrupled their birth weight in just four weeks. The gorgeous weather has meant we have been able to put them outside earlier than usual and they are loving the grass.
