Farm shop named UK’s best rural food and drink business
The business was also a runner-up in the Best Rural Retailer category at the awards, which were held in Manchester and sponsored by Amazon.
To reach the national awards, the high-welfare egg farm and shop won both categories in the North of England earlier in the year.

Hide AdMinskip Farm Shop plans to open what it says is the world’s first egg restaurant on a free-range egg-farm next month. Yolk Farm will seat 60 people and the menu will focus on “egg dishes with a healthy twist”.
“As you drive into our gates, you can see the hens living their best lives in their free-range paddock, and laying the most amazing eggs,” said owners Ben and Emma Mosey.
“We wanted to create a place where customers can have amazing food experiences and learn about the journey of their food in a fun, interactive way.”
Since taking over Minskip Farm Shop three years ago, the Moseys have won 10 awards, including a British Free-Range Egg Producers’ Association’s Retailer of the Year.
