Well, what a summer we have had! So much support from local customers as well as ones visiting the area. Thank you to all those who have supported us.
For those who haven’t made it yet there are plenty of reasons to visit over the next few months. Over the summer we launched our very own ice-cream. We make it right here on the farm with our award winning milk. It’s a soft serve ice cream – better known as ‘Mr Whippy’ simple but absolutely delicious. Remember us on those late summer days – you can stroll through the village and have an ice cream half way round! Perfect!
As we move into the autumn harvest is well underway. You’ll notice a lot of tractor movement in and around the village as farmers finally get to work after a very long, dry summer. On Middlehall farm the harvesting has been completed and we are now spreading muck, fertilizing the ground and adding nutrients ready to plant cover crops over winter. This year we have planted a real mix of cover crops and if the weather is right will make a beautiful display – and super wildlife friendly with plenty of seed and pollen.
The shop slows a little after the buzz of the school holidays, but there is plenty of planning going on for Pumpkin picking, wreath workshops and of course Christmas!
Pumpkin picking will be held over October half term and surrounding dates. We have a pumpkin patch that has been lovingly grown and we hope you will all come along to pick your own.
We also have some craft workshops organised over the coming months.
All details are on our website.
