Broad Beans!

We have now started PYO Broad Beans at £2.20/kg and we have lots of lovely Strawberries and Gooseberries as well as Rhubarb. Our Asparagus is still available- but do come and make the most of it before the end of the season!
  Don't forget the visit the lovely Tea Barn in the Farm Shop Car park for delicious home-made food made with the finest local ingredients... their wonderful cream tea is the perfect end to a PYO day!
 And many thanks to everyone who voted us Best Independent Local Food Retailer in the Petersfield Food Festival last weekend.... we are very grateful for all your support and good wishes.
