Some of the best Farm Shops in Norfolk

Gone are the days when a farm shop was just a makeshift shed selling own-reared meat and surplus fruit and vegetables. Today they have become destinations, offering a wide selection of produce from many different local producers, from fruit and veg, meat, pies, fish, local honey and conserves, bread and cakes, coffee, oil, free range eggs and cheeses to local handmade crafts and locally produced beer, wine and spirits. Some have on-site restaurants and cafés, Pick Your Own fields and garden centres and plant sales.

Norfolk is blessed with an abundance of quality farm shops and with the emphasis on keeping your food miles low and your taste experience high, they are the perfect place to pick up your weekly groceries.

Here are some of the best Farm Shops in Norfolk:
