The Farm Shop
and Pick Your Own
We grow a wide range
of usual and unusual fruit and vegetables which we sell in
our farm shop in a typical Suffolk barn. During the summer
there are many varieties you can pick yourself to get the
best quality and flavour.
Alder
Carr Farm Shop goes Palm Oil Free...!
Palm oil has been
in the press a lot recently due to the threat it is posing
to tropical rainforests, due to the large areas being cleared
to make way for plantaions. We are continually working
on reducing our environmental impact, both on the farm and
in their farm shop, tearoom and production kitchen.
Recently we have noticed
a number of products creeping in which contain palm oil. This
can also just be stated as 'vegetable oil' on the label. We
decided to stop selling any products which contain palm oil
or palm fat so we are now officially palm oil free.
To try and highlight the huge impact palm oil is having we are
holding a fund-raising talk and buffet. All profits will
go towards the RSPB's fund to buy threatened rainforest. See
Events for more details.
  
Delicatessen
In
2007 we extended the farm shop and opened our deli.
From our serve over counter we sell a wide variety of local
and European cheeses and cold meats. We also sell many
baked goods which are made fresh every day in our own Production
Kitchen, these include quiches, sausage rolls, scotch eggs
and sausage pie. A wide range of local wines and beers
are also available along with speciality olives and olive
products.
Our
Own Highland Beef
Available fresh
in the farm shop monthly
So why buy Highland
beef?
- Raised in the most natural, animal welfare friendly way
possible
- Unsurpassed for flavour and tenderness
- Lean and low in cholesterol, it carries just the right
amount of marbling through the meat for the best flavour
- Hung for 21 days to give that succulence and flavour
so typical of old fashioned traditional beef
Locally
Produced Food
We sell apples, apple juice, pies, meat, Suffolk-cure
bacon, cold meats, herb plants, our own free-range eggs, goat's
cheese, locally ground flour and Jersey cream from local producers.
Fair
Trade
We sell fairly-traded goods in the farm shop - tea, coffee,
chocolate etc. We do this in order to help small farmers like
ourselves in other parts of the world.
