Milk MaidsRaw milk & eggs · Bolton4.8 (1322 reviews)Milk Maids is an award winning family dairy farm at Over Hulton in Bolton, where the family has cared for the land and the cows for over 70 years. Milk from their own herd is bottled daily and sold either pasteurised or raw, and it also goes into their handcrafted gelato ice cream, with 24 flavours that change every month.
The farm shop sells the milk and ice cream alongside free range eggs from Staveley's Eggs, and you can order online for click and collect. The shop is open six days a week, closed on Tuesday, and opens a little earlier for anyone just after milk and eggs.Manchester Honey CompanyRaw honey · Sale5 (27 reviews)The Manchester Honey Company is a small beekeeping business run by Gareth from Sale Moor. The bees are kept along natural lines, without chemical treatments, and their hard earned honey stores are never swapped out for sugar syrup, so what goes in the jar is raw, pure honey exactly as the bees made it.
Everything sells through the online shop, where jars of raw honey sit alongside beekeepers soap, beeswax lip balm and beeswax candles, with bundle offers and gift cards too. The company also runs experience days for anyone curious about life inside the hive, and delivers rather than selling at the farm gate.Forster's Farm ShopMeat · Wigan4.8 (22 reviews)Forster's Farm Shop is run by a fifth generation family of organic farmers who have lived and farmed on the estate surrounding Haigh Woodland Park in Wigan for 60 years. Their animals graze the pastures around the park, and you will often spot them in the fields as you drive in. The family rear organic, grass fed beef and lamb for the shop.
Alongside their own meat they make sausages, burgers and dry cured bacon, and stock free range chicken and pork, organic vegetables, dairy products, cheeses, artisan jams, relishes and chutneys. The shop sits in the Kitchen Courtyard at the park and opens Tuesday to Sunday.Rebuilding the food system, from the farm up
