We embarked on this dream 5 years ago. Looking back to this time in 2021, we had sold everything, moved in temporarily into my parents, and I (Cecily) was heavily pregnant with our second child, mid heatwave, wondering if the sale of the property would go through … and wondering how on earth we were going to figure this all out!
We had a dream, to open our restaurant, to build a home for the boys, to renovate and open the holiday cottage, and of course… to start growing our own food.
In February 2022, we built the first raised beds in the back garden, which is what you see from the restaurant. We didn’t initially have anyone working in the garden, it was Pete and I, and a toddler and a newborn 😮💨
Fast forward, and we now have not just the space here, but a 5 acre field down the road… and in that time, we’ve been slowly but surely growing… in more ways than one. Sunday was such a moment, to say that everything sat next to that beef and Yorkshire pud was grown here 🌱🧡
We will continue to do our best to grow, to support local businesses, and support this wonderful community that we are so fortunate to live and work in.
