Farmhouse Kitchen January Brunch Menu

Our winter menu is designed to suit slower mornings, long lunches, and cold January days. The kitchen serves food daily from 8:30am until 2:30pm on open days.

We also feature a weekly specials board that changes regularly based on the fresh, seasonal produce we receive. This allows us to offer dishes at their very best, highlighting local ingredients and flavours.

About Us

As a multi-generational family-run farm and business, our heritage and story are so meaningful to us and act as the life force behind all that we do. The farm itself started with one man, a few cows and some pigs, and over the generations, we have changed, adapted and grown to where we are now. The Farmhouse Kitchen is a natural extension of our farm, giving us another opportunity to serve our local community and create meaningful connections with those around us.
