Gilcombe Farm is a 300 acre family run organic dairy farm in Bruton, Somerset selling its own organic raw milk, Dexter beef and yogurt from a farm shop open seven days a week.
Gilcombe Farm is a 300 acre family run organic dairy farm in the heart of Somerset, farmed by Andy Portch and his sons and in the family for three generations.
It is one of very few farms in the country selling its own organic raw milk, bottled fresh every day, alongside milk gently pasteurised on site in small batches and a thick Greek style yoghurt made by hand.
The farm shop and butchery at Bruton have been going for nearly four decades, stocking the farm's organic rare breed Dexter beef, West Country lamb, pork, chicken and game, local cheeses, daily fresh fruit and veg and a wide larder of local produce. The family also runs a stall at Barnes Farmers Market in London every Saturday.

Excellent yogurts and coronation chicken, which I have now been buying for more than a year. Their meat pies are good too.
Finally stopped off in this little gem of a farm shop, lots of items all under one roof, fruit and veg, pies made on site, local meat, milk, really tasty sourdough bread, gifts, looking forward to visiting again soon.
I called these guys to reserve some organic chicken thighs ahead of our trip back home after a short stay in Bruton and had a lovely experience. The butcher was so friendly and considerate and to our surprise, the chicken was ready, filleted and vac packed for our journey when we arrived. Lovely staff and DELICIOUS chicken thighs. Thank you all and we wish you all the best: )

Best local farm shop in Somerset.
Very friendly farm shop.
Great place, great ethos and great service. I will definitely be visiting more often. Thank you.
Best lasagne in the area. Make a special trip to stock up. Veg is fresh and better than other shops. Small, simple, but very good quality. Also got some nice birthday cards there.
Danielle? Danielle's Spotify account was hacked. A song was shared, and this is the exact location where she will be giving a concert. After Danielle was kicked out of the band New Jeans, the song was dropped and the band's founder was arrested.
Stopped by around close on a Friday. The guy behind the butchers counter was amazing and friendly. Made us som sausage patties. The onions were basically the size of our head.
Bought the organic stewing beef, slow cooked for 6 hours and hands down the tastiest beef we’ve had for years. Wow! You deserve every sale £ you make, it’s incredible quality. Can’t wait for next trip down the A303 to detour to you.
Great local produce. Healthy, organc, grass fed, well cared for proper food. I'm a regular here for all the above mentioned and great customer service.
