“Grow alongside
the retailers we serve...
“Working with the Farm Retail Association has been an invaluable experience for our company. It’s hugely beneficial having a support network of other farm shops to bounce ideas off, not to mention the additional discounts we’ve secured with several key suppliers off the back of being an FRA member – that alone has more than paid for the membership fee!
We are proud to support an association that is deeply committed to advocating for the future of farm retail.” – Forage Farm Shop & Kitchen”

Patron.
I’m really proud to be patron of The National Farm Retail Association.
Farm shops and farmers markets are one of the best ways to tap into your local food network and to source ingredients that have been produced ethically and sustainably.
They also bring real character into your kitchen – through offering great produce that reflects the local landscape, and by telling the story of the farmers and growers who produce it.”
