Who we are
About the farm
Our farm shop is in Groombridge, Kent, next to our own New Park Farm; we started in 1993 as an asparagus stall on the edge of the farm, the Asparagus Hut. We grow asparagus on 12 acres (around 5 ha) of sandy soil, along with squashes and other vegetables, strawberries, raspberries, cherries, plums and other seasonal fruit, and we sell eggs from our hens that free-range under our fruit trees. We take our asparagus to farmers' markets, other farm shops and into London; in the shop we offer produce from more than 50 suppliers in Kent and Sussex as well as fruit and vegetable boxes, and orders from our online shop can be collected or delivered within 5 miles.

Write a review
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.
