2025 FOOD TRAIL VENUES

Born in Bruton and the home of award-winning organic cheddar in the heart of Somerset, we bring the spirit of the West Country to the cheeseboard. Every truckle tells a tale – of myth and mystery, taste and tradition – made hand in hand with our land. Our mission is to be at the heart of the cheeseboard of life.

Higher Farm is an ambitious new regenerative food and farming project in Castle Cary, Somerset.

We are a family-owned and family-run artisan bakery that supplies local residents and businesses with our lovingly hand-crafted, baked produce. We use the highest quality, locally sourced, and ethically produced ingredients and the care and attention that we fold, stir, and mix into every bake is evident in each bite. Our bread is flour, water and salt – nothing else is added.

Great Mead is a pilot project in the heart of Chard to transform 6.4 acres of underused land into a welcoming place for everyone to enjoy.

Horner Farm is a small family farm, tenants on the National Trust Holnicote Estate on Exmoor.

A visit to Horrell & Horrell is like going to a friend's for dinner, where you bring a bottle, enjoy great food, and let the conversation flow – whilst we take care of everything else. Guests can take in the gardens, and enjoy an aperitif on the lawn or by the fire before dining that celebrates a seasonal, and mostly homegrown harvest at a long sharing table in our old cow barn.
