The new farm store in the farmyard is open every day from 9 am until 6pm. We've got bags of potatoes for sale, our full range of flours, special offers on eggs and lots of veg from the farm. You can also order pork including bacon, sausages and chops - just leave us a message in the message book or call us on 01728 65200. If no one is around (out feeding pigs, or milling grain) all our contact details are in the shop.

We were thrilled and amazed when news came through that we'd been nominated for Local Food Farmer of the Year in the 2011 Farmers Weekly Awards. Thank you for all your support. The nomination, against two others in the category, talks about our "added value and range of complementary enterprises ensuring that 95% of the home-milled cereals, vegetables, pigs and turkeys are sold locally or direct off the farm". It's wonderful to be recognised in this way by the most prestigious farming award scheme in the country.

Kylie has a new litter of piglets. If you peek over the fence opposite our farm store you can see her pesky piglets playing in the straw. If you get too close though she'll soon see you off!
