Who we are
About the farm
We, the McTurk family, have farmed at Calcott Hall near Brentwood, Essex, for nearly 50 years: our former dairy farm covers 120 acres (approx. 49 ha); we started growing vegetables and fruit in 1974 and opened our farm shop in 1975, housed since 1983 in a renovated old Essex barn. In the shop we offer fresh fruit and vegetables, with the N S Risdon butchery and Star Fishmongers counters and our Barnyard Café on site. Every autumn before Halloween we open a pick-your-own pumpkin patch on the farm (27–29 October in 2026).

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
