Farndon Fields Farm Shop

Market Harborough local fresh farm food shop

Farndon Fields, an amazing selection of fresh seasonal delights nestled on the outskirts of the charming Market Harborough! This isn't just any farm shop, oh no; it's a haven for food aficionados seeking the crème de la crème of fresh, local produce and artisanal treats. Picture a quaint countryside retreat where the aroma of freshly baked bread mingles with the sweet scent of just-picked berries, the vibrant colourful selection of hand picked fruit and veg you as you wander through the aisles.

The moment you step through the doors, you're greeted by the vibrant hues of seasonal fruits and vegetables, their flavours bursting with the love and care that comes from being nurtured in the very soil beneath your feet. Each plump tomato, crunchy carrot, and leafy green is a testament to the dedication of their local farmers who work tirelessly to ensure that what lands on your plate is nothing short of perfection.

But Farndon Fields is so much more than just a produce market. It's a celebration of the culinary richness that the region has to offer. You'll find a butchery counter groaning with prime cuts of meat, lovingly reared by nearby farmers who share their commitment to sustainable, ethical farming practices. The shelves are laden with a symphony of local cheeses, each with their own unique story, ready to be savoured on a crusty baguette or paired with a fine wine from their meticulously selected range. The bread and cake selection comes from Hambleton's bakery and is always delicious and fresh each day.

The deli is a veritable smorgasbord of goodness, with an ever-changing array of charcuteries, pâtés, and terrines that'll have you drooling like a hungry hound. And let's not forget the bakery section, where the talented team crafts heavenly breads and pastries that are the envy of the neighbourhood. You can always find something unique from teas to sweets to frozen ready meals that are from independent small businesses and cannot be found anywhere else.

But it's not all about the food; it's about the experience. The friendly faces of Kevin, Milly, and the rest of the team light up when they share their knowledge of the produce and the local area. They're as passionate about the food they sell as they are about the community they serve.

The farm shop is a place to linger, to learn, and to love or pop into the farmers kitchen café for a cup of fair-trade coffee and a slice of homemade cake. The food from the kitchen is good but they need more vegan options please and afternoon tea is always good.

Whether you're a seasoned foodie or a novice chef looking to expand your horizons, Farndon Fields is your go-to destination for all things edible and enjoyable.
