Carpenters Farm Shop

Farm shop at Carpenters Nursery, where the Carpenter family have grown fruit and veg on the same site since 1923; the owners describe it as the oldest farm shop in St Albans and Hertfordshire. Own-grown produce alongside locally sourced meat, fish, eggs, bread, cakes, cheese, cured meats, local beers and a free-from range, plus a refill area. A garden centre and café share the site; dogs are welcome in the garden centre and café but not in the farm shop. Open Mon–Sat 9am–5:30pm, Sun 9:30am–4:30pm.
