Pluckley Farm Shop in Pluckley, Kent sells the family's own free range pork from Dering Farm plus local bread, dairy, cheese, fruit and veg, drinks and hampers.
Pluckley Farm Shop opened in 2010 in the Kent village of Pluckley, founded by a former lawyer whose family have farmed these villages for centuries, with a family tree reaching back to a blacksmith in Hothfield in the late 1600s.
What began as a village farm shop grew roots of its own: the family diversified into rearing pigs and moved to their own farm, Dering Farm, in 2021. The famous Pluckley pork is reared in large outdoor paddocks, the pigs fed fruit and veg alongside organic, GM free pig nuts, with no fertilisers or pesticides used on the land and no steroids or antibiotics routinely given.
The shop on Smarden Road sells the farm's own pork alongside freshly baked bread, dairy, fresh fruit and veg, cheese, meat, local beers, wines and spirits, locally made ice cream and bespoke hampers, all sourced from the farm or the local area. The founder's sister Marie has worked in the shop since it opened, with farm shop dog Murphy roaming the farm.

Lovely range of produce slightly on the expensive side.
Went there recently for the first time, not much to choose from and the lady at the counter didnt even offered me a bag or ask me if i want my receipt.
Great local pharm shop.
Absolutely amazing range of high quality produce. Scotch eggs to die for or at least make a diversion returning to Headcorn. Not that one more diversion makes.much difference with all these roadworks!

We do not hold prices, availability, parking, access details or event dates for Pluckley Farm Shop. The farm answers those directly on its own site, by phone or by email.
Thought I would pay a visit shame they had none of their own pork. Was impressed with how clean and inviting the shop was. Purchased some items. Sausage rolls 😋. Wine from Chatham and Currys+ veg & meat.
My sister and brother in law recommended the shop to us and I have to say the sausages are un rivalled, the rolls are scrumptious and the hot smoked salmon addictive really lovely local veg and products. Worth the money and definitely worth a visit for all those little bits and pieces that make your fridge and larder look sooooo inviting.
Whenever we are passing through the area we make a beeline for this shop. yesterday we were fortunate to stop and brought some hot scotch eggs which was a first and they were delicious. We have found the shop to be staffed by friendly people and the products sold are of very good quality at reasonable prices.
