Who we are

About the farm

The Copley family have been farming for over 140 years; Rob and Heather Copley opened our farm shop in 2003 at Ravensknowle Farm between Pontefract and Featherstone (West Yorkshire), a 120-acre holding the family bought in 1967. On our fields we grow rhubarb, asparagus, strawberries, raspberries, gooseberries, blackberries, sweetcorn, sprouts and pumpkins – more than 300,000 pumpkins for our autumn Pumpkin Festival – we spin and jar the honey from our 40 hives on site, and the shop has its own butchery, bakery and gelato kitchen. We host pick-your-own and seasonal events, serve food in Moo Café, fulfil online orders for collection or delivery, and the original farmhouse sleeps up to 8 guests.
