Who we are
About the farm
We have farmed our 20-acre (approx. 8 ha) fruit farm on the edge of the village of Mitchell in Cornwall, just off the A30, since 1977. We grow strawberries on a table-top system and potted raspberries in tunnels, as well as gooseberries, currants and rhubarb, using beneficial insects against pests (integrated pest management). From June to September we offer pick-your-own fruit, a sunflower field and a cut-flower garden, and we sell garden plants we raise ourselves and preserves made from our own fruit; our café serves Cornish cream teas, and we host walks, talks and willow-weaving workshops. We also supply part of our fruit to local restaurants, shops and wholesalers.

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.
