The latest addition to Hauser & Wirth Somerset’s contemporary gallery, restaurant, gardens and of course working farm, Farm Shop was opened by Manuela Wirth in November 2020. As you would expect, the shop has a wide range of beautiful fresh fruit and veg, local chutneys, wines, spirits and an outstanding deli with delicious prepared salads, charcuterie and cheeses. But the star of the show is the butchery where Durslade Farm’s rare breed meat is on display, hand-prepared, dry-aged and exceptionally high-quality. Here you can buy everything from the Sunday roast to our favourite Merguez sausages.

If you’re not close to Bruton, don’t worry: the shop now has an online offering including its ‘Finish at Home’ range of prepared meals all delivered in the same tin enamel dishes that are used in the next-door restaurant. Grab a slow-cooked beef shin or beef and chestnut mushroom lasagne with a comforting marmalade pudding to finish it off, for instant nutritious comfort food. All Farm Shop’s fresh meat is also online as are their most popular ranges. We love the kombuchas including indulgent blackberry and honey and the instantly refreshing elderflower and green tea.

The generous meat box is a family favourite, filled to the brim with BBQ classics. If you’re looking for a gift for that fire-loving man in your life, why not get him an Alex Pole steel skillet (with a bag of charcoal and applewood chips) for a gift that keeps on giving.

Farm Shop is open seven days a week, from 9am to 6pm from Tuesdays to Saturdays and from 9am to 5pm on Sundays and Mondays. Everything is so beautifully presented and displayed, you’ll be tempted to buy it all.  Shop online 24/7.  There’s free delivery throughout the UK when you spend over £60.
