From Field to Shelf

Fresh, local, sustainable: Boscastle Farm Shop’s new extension is redefining the way we buy, putting food miles at the fore.

Set on the cliffs of north Cornwall, Boscastle Farm Shop has long since been a destination for food lovers. Now, with an exciting expansion, it’s set to become a must-visit. The new farm shop and butchery extension has more than doubled the floor space, bringing with it a host of new offerings while staying true to its ethos of quality, sustainability, and local sourcing.

At the heart of the expansion is the butchery – one that has been a cornerstone of Boscastle Farm Shop since its inception 12 years ago. Beef comes courtesy of Boscastle Farm’s own herd of North Devon Red Ruby cattle, reared on the cliffs that you can see from the café and butchered on-site, ensuring almost zero food miles. The new butchery also boasts its own state-of-the-art hanging room and, with a commitment to traditional butchering, pre-packaged and vacuum-sealed meat is a thing of the past. Instead, customers can select their preferred cuts and discuss their choices with resident butcher, Trev, who has been with the farm shop since the very beginning.

Beyond the butchery, the newly expanded space offers a more immersive shopping experience. With extra room to explore, produce is beautifully showcased, making it easier for visitors to appreciate the wealth of local goods on offer. The deli section is a treasure trove of handmade delights, featuring pasties, sausage rolls, quiches, scones, and award-winning Scotch eggs, all crafted in the farm’s own café. Meanwhile, the fresh fruit and vegetable displays burst with seasonal produce, reinforcing the farm shop’s commitment to freshness and quality.

For those with a taste for the finer things, the farm shop’s alcohol section is a true highlight, featuring an impressive 95% of beers, ciders, wines, and spirits sourced locally. The dairy and cheese selection are equally exceptional, with offerings from renowned local producers such as Rodda’s and Trewithen Dairy and The Greet Cheese Company. The commitment to supporting local ‘food heroes’ also extends to the dry goods section, with products from trusted names like Halzephron Herb Farm and The Bay Tree Food Co.

Of course, no visit would be complete without indulging in something sweet from the delightful range of chocolates, biscuits and fudge, all sourced as close to home as possible. Whether you’re picking up a gift, stocking your pantry, or simply treating yourself, there’s something here to satisfy every craving and Boscastle Farm Shop continues to raise the bar for farm-to-table excellence in Cornwall.
