Recognized for its commitment to quality, innovation, and community involvement, this family-run farm is generating buzz not just for its seasonal produce, but also for the exceptional service it offers.
A Beacon of Local Produce
Situated on the border of Wigan and Warrington, Kenyon Hall Farm boasts a range of attractions including a café, a plant centre, and, notably, a well-stocked farm shop. The shop specializes in local, seasonal produce and artisan treats sourced from both nearby farms and further afield. This focus on quality and local partnerships is what makes Kenyon Hall stand out in a competitive field.

He noted, "This is huge news for our fabulous farm shop crew. It’s a massive deal as these awards are judged by industry experts and recognise excellence, innovation, and quality." The farm is competing in the 'large' farm shop category, which includes retailers with a turnover exceeding £600,000.
Community Engagement and Family Fun
In addition to its accolades, Kenyon Hall Farm continues to engage the local community through various events. This school holiday, visitors can participate in the beloved Easter Egg Hunt, which promises interactive trails and delightful surprises for children. With tickets priced affordably, the farm aims to make family activities accessible while ensuring that each child leaves with a small treat.
The awards ceremony is set for April 13 at the NEC in Birmingham, where the winner will be announced. Regardless of the outcome, Kenyon Hall Farm has already achieved significant recognition within the industry, serving as a beacon of local excellence and community spirit.
