Visit our FARMERS' onsite shop

Our shop sells the full range of FARMERS’ body care products and provides testers so you can try them first. We also sell hats, jackets, aprons, weekender bags and more designed and made by FARMERS’ friends including farmhand Felicity Rowley. We like to boast that we’re Wales’ smallest deli. We have shelves full of specially imported capers, olives, tapas sauces, butter beans, wine and beer. These provisions come from the wine merchant and delicatessen Ultra Comida.
