Homestead Farm Shop

From an honesty box at this working farm’s gate 10 years ago, Homestead Farmshop near Ormskirk now offers great honest produce in its shop and restaurant.

Come and meet the Seddon family, not forgetting the farm collies Flash and Kip – although Kip loves to do what his name suggests so you may not get to see him! Take a seat in a beautifully hand-crafted wooden chair in Margaret’s Restaurant and select from the Lancashire Farmhouse Kitchen menu, serving produce fresh from the farm. Finish off your West Lancashire hotpot with Mrs Dowson’s ice cream or a delicious homemade apple pie. Once you've enjoyed Margaret's taste of Lancashire why not buy a real taste of the region at Homestead’s farmshop which stocks a tempting array of fresh farm produce, local meats, dairy products and sweet treats.

You can even make up your own hamper of regional goodies – you choose the contents and pick the basket, we make up the hamper and wrap it free of charge.
