Northamptonshire has a proud tradition of farm shops anchored by families who grow their own produce. Smiths Farm Shop in Spratton started with punnets of strawberries and an honesty box outside a gate in the summer of 1958. Today the family grows all their own crops and works with local food producers to provide an outlet for their goods. The farm shop stocks seasonal, home-grown vegetables alongside artisan breads, locally reared meats, and homemade products.
