Dogs — Welcome outside and in the yard, not in the butchery
Card and cash — Both, and there's no minimum spend
What's in, and when
Rough guide — the weather moves everything by a fortnight either way. The board at the gate is always right, and the newsletter is the only thing we update every week.

Early summer — Strawberries, broad beans, new potatoes, soft herbs
High summer — Tomatoes, courgettes, raspberries, sweetcorn
Autumn — Apples and pears, squash, plums, the first game
Winter — Roots, brassicas, stored apples, and the whole butchery
All year — Beef, lamb, pork, eggs, milk, bread on shop days

What's in the shop

Butchery

Our own beef, lamb and pork, hung properly. Ask for a cut you can't see and we'll do it while you wait.

Vegetables

Cut that morning on shop days. Wonky, dirty, and priced accordingly.

Eggs & dairy

Our eggs, milk from the next valley, cheese from three counties.

Bakery

Bread baked here Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. It goes by noon.

Larder

Honey, preserves and flour from named local makers — the label says who.

Enquire
Collection from the shop — we don't post fresh food and we'd rather not pretend we can.
Where it actually comes from
Grown or reared here — All the beef, lamb, pork, eggs and most of the veg
Within thirty miles — Milk, cheese, flour, honey, and the apples we run out of
From further — Coffee, citrus, a few storecupboard things — labelled, because pretending otherwise is a lie
Our animals — Named field, named abattoir, twelve miles away. Ask and we'll tell you which
Certification — Inspected and certified by the scheme on the door — check us on their register, not on our say-so
Drove past for six years assuming it was a farm gate with a sign. It is a proper butcher's counter and the vegetables are cheaper than the supermarket.

A regular, eventually

What's in this week

One email on Tuesday night: what's been picked, what's in the butchery, and whether the lane is passable.
