Who we are
About the farm
Since 1989 we have been farming at Snakehall Farm near the village of Reach, Cambridgeshire: an 18-acre (about 7 ha), rented, certified organic care farm where we work alongside our Co-workers – people with learning disabilities, autism or other additional needs. In 17 polytunnels and in the open field we grow vegetables, salad, herbs and flowers; we also have a small orchard and laying hens, and in our own kitchen we make chutneys, jams and cakes. We sell our produce in our self-service honesty farm shop on the farm, open seven days a week from dawn till dusk, and in our Unwrapped shop and café in Ely. We offer farm tours on request, our nature reserve is open to all, and we welcome volunteers.

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.
