Thank you to every one who has supported Harefield Farm Shop,

We are still open!!! and have just enjoyed the beautiful May sunny weather.

The first week in May is always outstandingly vibrant, the apple blossom was just captivating and the magnolia trees just add that bit of eccentric charm, with their pink petals waving about like gigantic fairy hats. What a lovely two weeks its been.

Planting is under way and carrots, parsnips, broad beans, runner beans, sweet corn, cabbage, purple sprouting broccoli all in the ground, lets hope its a success again this year, fingers crossed, just got to keep on top of the weeds and the moisture..

The purple sprouting broccoli was absolutely delicious, the kids were asking me to go and cut some more, "really tasty".

The local shops and restaurants seem to be into our "ffreedom food approved free range range eggs", and after sampling the "purple sprouting broccoli", they keep asking what vegetables are coming through.."Have you got anything yet?"... well we have actually but only for the family table, cauliflower like you cant believe, so scrummy we cant let go of it! Sorry, but we have planted more of it for next time , just hope it all germinates, cauliflower is a funny thing to deal with, never really can guarante its going to take with us.... however loads of veg to choose from soon.

It really is all hands on deck here at the moment, so bare with me if I take a moment to run from the field to the farm shop to deal with your needs... keeps me fit... the produce is of course worth the wait.... and no air miles....etc, just served from the field..umm... LOVELY.

Thanks again for visiting and hope to see you again soon.
