Based at Logie Steading near Forres, Moray we are a family-run business, specialising in sustainable farming practices, small-scale produce and hardy plants suited to Scottish conditions.

Always trying to reduce food miles, we love to champion the amazing range of food grown locally, and more widely across Scotland. However, we do have to admit to being tempted by delicious food, not already widely available up here, which we feel will appeal to our customers. A selection of what you’ll find in the shop includes:
Raised extensively here on Logie Estate. The award-winning Logie Herd produces beef among the absolute best around for taste and quality. Like all Logie Estate meat, beef is produced on a small scale and prepared in Forres; when the most popular cuts are gone, they’re gone! If you’d like to order beef please contact the Farm and Garden Shop. We are now able to send orders of fish and meat to most UK addresses by overnight delivery; please ring the shop if you would like to make an order.
Delicious wild venison from Logie Estate is available in season and when sustainability allows. Sold as haunch, loin, sausages, escallopes (particularly good for making kebabs) and our ever-popular veni-burgers.
Rare/minority breeds raised on a very small scale here on Logie Estate.
Like the pork, the Jacob lamb is raised on a very small scale each summer so when it’s gone, it’s really gone.
The special Logie blend of coffee has been developed for us by Kevin of the Inverness Coffee Roasting Company. Roasted locally this is a specially smooth blend which is very popular with our regular customers. We also stock other varieties including the new Cafe blend used, to great acclaim, in The Café at Logie Steading.
Throughout the year we have a good range of smoked and fresh fish – including the very popular Fish Pie Mix which has the perfect balance of salmon and white fish: fresh and and smoked. The Morecambe Bay Potted Shrimps are just the best as a treat on toast.
The award-winning Cullisse Highland Rapeseed Oil comes recommended by Nigel Slater and Claire MacDonald and we think it’s delicious too. It is grown, pressed and bottled by Robert MacKenzie on his family farm in Easter Ross.
Jams and pickles are made in Nairn
Free range eggs from near Dyke and from the hens here at Logie
We stock a good range of really tasty local cheese from Tain and from Connage.
The highly baked Highland Crackers are made near Beauly.
Throughout the summer we have small batches of local honey …. but it is never on the shelf for long!

We sell hardy plants specially selected for Scottish gardens. Many of our plants are grown and propagated from the Logie House Garden (100m above sea level), where mature specimens can be seen.
We aim to have long-lasting plants which are well proven and will continue to give pleasure for many years. We are always looking for unusual varieties of hardy perennials, shrubs and ground cover plants to add to our – and your – collections. The shop assistants are experienced gardeners and very happy to share their knowledge of the plants and gardening in general.
We sell tools and garden paraphernalia that we believe in. The range of tools is small but sturdy and useful – a lot of which we all use in the garden. Everyone has their favourite – some from the Burgon and Ball range, some made by Darlac, and then there the the wonderful tools from Niwaki – all the way from Japan where the tradition of hand tools is still so strong. Beautifully designed and made, just a joy to use.
We also stock a range of useful gifts. From baskets, fun tea towels, to mugs, smellies (including Scottish Fine Soaps), toys and baskets, we look for well-made, purposeful products which make excellent presents – whether for yourself or someone else!
Alasdair and Panny Laing started Logie Steading Plants in the 1990s, in what is now the Ladies and Disabled WCs, with the plants displayed along the back wall of the current car park; originally to sell interesting plants – some propagated from Logie House Garden, and others sourced from further afield.
They soon realised that they should be selling the delicious Longhorn Beef from the Logie herd so quickly changed the name of the shop to Logie Steading Farm & Garden Shop. In 2013 the shop moved across the car park to the current premises as the Big Garage had been transformed from a sad leaking shell to the glorious building you now see. The increase in size has allowed the shop to expand and sell and wider range of food, gifts and goodies.
Thank you for shopping locally and supporting small producers.
Our beef is all frozen and we can send it overnight by post by courier. Please email us on plants@logie.co.uk for current prices. thank you
Our herd is quite small so we occasionally have to buy in Longhorn yearlings from other Scottish breeders to finish with our own stock
Yes the cows all have registered names, starting with the proefix ‘Logie’. we have alrady named some of the 2026 heifer calves – Logie Ash, Logie Acer and Logie Araminta … more to come!
A large proportion of our plants are propagated right here at Logie but we are not able to grow everything! We buy from specially selected nurseries across the UK, predominantly from Scotland, to try to ensure the plants are suitable for growing in our northern climes. We do not import from abroad.
