New Green grocers in Shepton Mallet

We've had a business open in Shepton Mallet High Street at number 10, may I introduce The Little Farm Shed, selling beautiful and attractive fruit and vegetables locally.

Chutney All Year Round has the privilege of being able to have our fresh local eggs supplied by them.

Read this extract from ‘BBC NEWS’ about these two brilliant sisters.

Two pupils from Somerset have opened up their own family-run farm shop in Shepton Mallet to help reinvigorate the high street.

Sisters Laurel, 10, and Rosie, seven, are the first to take part in an "incubator scheme" in the market town.

Their fresh-produce business will occupy a space rent-free in the newly refurbished Market Place for nine months to see whether it is viable.

Local charity Interim Spaces has transformed the area thanks to an injection of a quarter of a million pounds. It specialises in taking over failing and empty commercial and high street buildings and turning them over to community use.

Laurel and Rosie are hoping to make a success of The Little Farm Shed.

The girls were selected from 27 contenders to start their retail project, which began as a way for them to earn some pocket money, by selling produce from their grandfather's farm.

Laurel said: "It has been quite busy. I would not have ever imagined working behind a till, but when we were younger we used to play shops and now it is like a dream come true.”
