Visitors to Longdown Activity Farm in Ashurst can now buy locally sourced Hampshire Fare and New Forest Marque produce at their new farm shop which opened last weekend.

Longdown Farm Shop is stocking joints and cuts of locally reared meat, Sunnyfields organic fresh vegetables, smoked fish from the Testwood Smokery, award-winning cow and goat cheeses from Lyburn and Loosehanger Farmhouse Cheeses, New Forest Barramundi, free range eggs, freshly baked bread, ground flour from Eling Tide Mill, spring water from the South Gorley spring and more.

Bryan Pass, owner of Longdown Activity Farm and the Longdown Farm Shop said of his new venture. "I am committed to supporting other farmers and producers in the locality. In the New Forest and Hampshire we have an enviable choice of delicious food produced right here on our doorstep and I want to bring it together under one roof so that it is easy for our customers to access. I also aim to sell the produce at a sensible and fair price."

Longdown Farm Shop manager Anita Smith adds The Longdown Farm Shop may be visited separately from the activity farm and there is no charge to enter. We have a loyalty card scheme open to all our customers, which, in exchange for stamps collected over a period of time, can be exchanged as a £5 voucher to spend in the Longdown Farm Shop.' Longdown Farm Shop is at Ashurst near Southampton, tel 023 8029 2837. longdownfarm.co.uk.
