Located on Rose and Crown Road, Swavesey, Ben and Lydia Baker and family at Rosegate Farm are well known locally, having produced raspberries and strawberries here for over 50 years. We are passionate about sustainable farming – low food miles and selling to the local community were part of our business from the very beginning.
Freshly picked raspberries usually become available in early June and are here through until September.
All our pork, sausages, bacon and gammon come from traditional breed pigs raised here at Rosegate Farm. Always check the “latest” section of our website to find out when the next batch will be available!
The beef available from the Rosegate Farm butchery comes primarily from our own herd. As demand for quality local beef has been so high we occasionally buy in beef animals from 2 other farms we work closely with whilst building up our own herd as quickly as we can. Our aim is that before long all the beef we sell will have been born and reared on the farm, but building up a high quality herd capable of meeting demand takes time! The beef is all either Hereford, Aberdeen Angus or a Hereford/Angus cross, both breeds are known for their fantastic quality beef.
Entirely from our own flock, our lambs graze pastures in and around Swavesey, Boxworth and Over. Where possible, the lambs are completely grass fed and are available in the butchery throughout the whole year.
