This afternoon I met with Craig and Vanessa at Squirrel Cottage farm shop on The America to hear about their growing business and their plans for the future.  The weather was cold and blustery but the reception was warm, and it is great to see such a well-stocked store in our village full of produce sourced locally where possible.

I’ve heard only good feedback from local residents about Squirrel Cottage, and I really hope they’ll make a success of it.  I’ve undertaken to find out some information from the council for them.  And I came away having purchased some seeded bread, honey and a butternut squash!
