The farm's produce has even been sold at the popular family supermarket, Waitrose!
The farm hosts a wide variety of pick-your-own events throughout the year from strawberry picking and raspberry picking in the Summer to pumpkin picking in the Autumn and plenty more fruit-picking activities throughout the year.
If picking your own fruit and vegetables isn't really your thing, then no worries! Head over to the charming farm shop and browse the diverse collection of produce.
