We started up in the business in 1975 at 1, Regal Buildings Skipton [opposite the bus station]. After my father wanted a change of career. He decided on Farmhouse Fare because he wanted to bring good quality wholesome fresh farm foods to the public. I started working on a Saturday and went on to working full - time after leaving school. My sister and my mum joined in the company shortly after. We decided to move to a bigger premises in 1996 to 2, High street Skipton where we still trade today. The company is still family run with my husband and nephew joining us. My father is now semi – retired but still comes to work for a couple of hours each morning to keep his hand in.
Not long after starting the business we won a pork pie competition at the Tarn house Hotel, Stirton, nr Skipton.
