Meet Our Family
Both our parents are from farming families. Muddy Boots is part of the farm that our great-grandfather first bought in the 1930s.
During the 1950s our grandma started the first ‘farm shop’ on the farm, selling freshly harvested vegetables from the back door of the farm house.
Muddy Boots started in 2004 in our family tent, with mum selling raspberries. The following year, we moved production into a poly tunnel, and expanded our range of fresh local fruit, veg and other produce.
Today we have a farm shop, café, adventure play area and pottery painting studio, with the whole family actively involved in the day-to-day running of the business.
