Newsletter
Sorry it's been a while since we sent out our last newsletter, but we've had a busy time with Christmas, then preparations for Valentines, then Mother's Day weekend shortly after that and suddenly it's March and already Easter. We've had a great start to the year, especially with the tea room. On three separate occasions we've counted 50 people who have had our speciality teas and coffees, not to mention the delicious cakes that Jo and Katja produce. We are constantly praised for the quality and taste of these cakes and we do pass your comments on. We all appreciate it - it's the good comments that makes everything worthwhile
Following on from last year's newsletter, in case you aren't aware, we did win Best Rural Retail for North Wales and Cheshire in The Countryside Alliance's national competition. We are absolutely thrilled with this result, particularly in view of the strong competition, so thank you to all of you who have voted and supported us. We couldn't have done it without you
And what's happening now.....
We have got a family walking quiz running at the moment. After careful consideration we decided that due to the cold and horrible Easter weather that we would operate the quiz over the week during the school holidays, so that hopefully there may be a spell which was dry enough to have a go. There is an easy access route, (suitable for prams, wheelchairs and bicycles) from our farm shop to the River Weaver and along the Weaver Valley with 30 questions in all and if you are able to, there is an extended route (questions 31-40) though you will probably need wellingtons and this route unfortunately is not suitable for push chairs or wheelchairs, however this is a circular route, so it is quite interesting. The cost of submitting your entry is £1 and there is a prize for those who enter, just for participating. Correct entries will be put in a draw for a basket of chocolate worth £40, so go on have a go
Hope to see you soon
Best wishes
