St. Pirran's shop window display

As part of St. Pirran's day on 5th March (next Tuesday) a group of farm volunteers have lovingly created a beautiful window display for our farm shop. Many thanks to our wonderful volunteers! Please come to the shop and admire their handiwork.




Stocking the farm shop

This week we took delivery of a big order from Suma, and we have also been stocking up on local supplies, plus of course our own eggs, so our farm shop is looking lovely. We are open Monday to Saturday from 10am till 5pm, closed on Sundays.







Recent WWOOF volunteers

Many many thanks to all the WWOOF volunteers whom we have hosted in February - Baptiste, Freddie, Will, Grace, Ruby, Gina, and Warren - who have already moved on to their next projects and destinations.
