FOOD
SUPPLIERS As well as all the tearooms he has
visited Dad has also discovered a number of local suppliers of
foods. Dad is very passionate about where possible buying local
and so helping the local economy.
Eileen's
Cakes, Newby Head Farm, Nr Ribblehead, Ingleton,
North Yorkshire. 01539 625347.
Delicious home
made cakes, scones and tarts. (Dad never fails to stop
when he is passing!!).
An organic
farm. A wide range of foodstuffs for sale. Must be one of
the best cheese counters Dad has ever seen. Try the milk
too, from their own herd.
Williamsons Home Made Preserves, Dale End, Barbon, Cumbria. 015242 76313. (The house is directly opposite the church)
Chutneys, jams and marmalades, home made with the highest quality ingredients, at under £2 a jar. Just wonderful. Dad has been a customer for over 10 years, and will not go anywhere else. All profits too go to charities such as cancer etc.
