Trevaskis Farm A gem of a foodie place, this small west Cornwall farm combines restaurant, shop, pick-your-own and educational project. Most of the 80 types of fruit, vegetables, salads and herbs grown on the farm go straight into the restaurant or shop, or can be picked to take home. The restaurant’s daily - changing special menu features Trevaskis beef and pork and what can’t be found on the home farm comes from other local growers and producers. Gwinear, Hayle 01209 713931 www.trevaskisfarm.co.uk The Cheese Shop Beloved by locals and visitors alike, this unique shop is under new ownership. Cornwall’s renowned cheesemonger, Stephen Gunn, is off to France to work with local cheese makers and perhaps produce his own. But new proprietors Pam and Graham Cotgreave from Looe are following in Stephen’s footsteps by continuing to sell only the finest artisan-produced cheeses. Watch out for two new local cheeses that will be launched at this year’s Cornwall Food and Drink Festival. 29 Ferris Town, Truro 01872 270742 Cornish Orchards Supplier of high-quality apple juices and ciders from traditional varieties including many old Cornish, grown on the farm. Owner Andy Atkinson expects a bumper harvest this autumn, but if you have large quantities of excess apples do please contact him. Have fun at the farm tasting-shop and choose the particular juices and ciders that suit your palate, or take your own apples (100kg plus) to be pressed separately.

Horse and Jockey Bakery Follow your nose when you next visit Porthleven - the smell of pasties cooking will bring you to this quaint wooden baker’s stuffed with delicious treats, on the harbour side. The large range of pasties and pies are prepared in the main Helston bakery, but cooked here, while the wonderful range of traditional breads, rolls and cakes arrive already baked. Friendly staff will also fill rolls and sandwiches freshly for your picnic. 1 Commercial Road, Porthleven, Helston 01326 562324 W Harvey & Sons Cornwall’s largest shellfish processor and wholesaler with an excellent reputation for quality and service.

Feast on packs of various prepared shellfish meats as well as dressed crab in the shell and cocktail claws. The Coombe, Newlyn, Penzance 01736 362983 www.crabmeat.co.uk Skinner’s If you agree with this New World brewery (producing 10,000 galls a week of ales relying more on hop flavours and aromas and less on malt) that ‘Cornish food deserves Cornish beer’, look out for its Betty Stogs or Cornish Knocker to name just two of its beers brewed using grain grown exclusively on three local farms and malted in Newton Abbot. Riverside, Newham Road, Truro 01872 271885 or 01872 245689 www.skinnersbrewery.com Kittow & Son Fifth generation family butcher in the centre of Fowey which recently opened a new deli section, selling home-made pies, such as lamb, lemon and rosemary, or chicken, ham and apricot, plus terrines and pâtés, using meat from the shop, as well as a large variety of westcountry products including local Cornish cheeses.
