Home Deliveries – Easter Weekend

We are continuing to offer our home delivery service to the over 70s, however due to the Easter Bank Holidays we will not be delivering on either Good Friday or Easter Monday. Our office will also be closed on these days so please keep this in mind if you need a delivery early next week.

If you are within a 5 mile radius of the Lye Cross Farm Shop (not sure give us a call!) you can call in with your order and we will deliver within the next day or so, and to help avoid contact we can take the payment over the telephone and then knock and drop at your door.

Please call between 9am – 3pm Monday to Friday to place orders, we will be able to deliver from Monday to Friday.

Alternatively, if you would like to collect from the Farm Shop we can take the order and payment and then pop it in your boot!

Please be patient as I’m sure you are aware not every product is readily available at the moment and we are doing our best to ensure we are fully stocked – we might not have exactly what you would like but will try to get very close..

Great news from the International Cheese Awards at
Nantwich this year! We are pleased to share that we have won two awards at this year’s show – Silver for our Farmhouse Vintage Cheddar and Bronze for our Mild Cheddar.

 

Despite the wet weather and the unfortunate circumstances that led to most of the show being cancelled, we had a great day talking to those that braved the rain! We made the most of this opportunity to talk to the show visitors about our Mild Mini Cheddar Sticks and our Certified 100% Grass-Fed Cheddar, both of which received a fantastic reception!
