A beautiful farm shop near Bristol has been named one of the best in the country. Flourish at Glenavon Fam on Bath Road, Saltford, was one of seven businesses shortlisted in the south west category at the Farm Shop and Deli Retailer Awards 2023.
Flourish was first opened in 2020 by Paul Hargreaves and Paul Castle, who had an idea of a positive-impact, planet-friendly restaurant and food retail destination. The pair teamed up with Adam Stratton, owner of Glenavon Farm, to transform unused dairy buildings into a unique farm shop for locals and passers-by.
The farm shop, which is just half an hour's drive from Bristol, sells locally produced meats, speciality cheeses, vegetarian deli products, freshly baked bread, patisserie and pantry items. The food hall arm of Flourish has a vibrant menu devised by head chef Rosa Scott serving brunch, salads, lunch and pizzas all made with the freshest ingredients.
