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.

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.
