They're Local and They Know It!...


Parrett Brand Farm Shop Sign
When we think of supporting local shops, local food, in fact all things local, Parrett Brand Farm Shop is a shining example. 

It is run by Jonathan and Anwen Hoskyns from their apple orchards in North Perrott, Somerset.  They are constantly on the go, not only being on hand at their farm shop; they produce a range of delicious apple juices that they sell through Muddy Carrot, Farmers' Markets and other South West shops,  as well as running a thriving nursery cooperative that grows an enormous range of plants from a series of small growers in the area.

It is through their nurseries that we originally got to know them and the rest of their family.  They are so welcoming of anyone who is trying their hardest to run a local business.

The shop is full of lovely local food and drink, much of it directly from nearby farms, as well as a garden nursery.

Their sense of community is very obvious from their active Facebook page showing so much of what is going on.  This is a page I often visit.

If you love local and pop by their Farm Shop we'd love to have your reviews.  If you sign into your Muddy Carrot account and visit Parrett Brand Farm Shop page you can add your review and then enter our Get Digging competition - Good luck!!
