Some garden centres dabble in fresh food sales, but not so the Frensham Garden Centre. After winding your way through scented herbs, roses and alpines that slow your step, you reach a grotto stocked with the finest local meats, vegetables, cheeses and cooked food, alongside a range of produce that seems to have been selected in order to challenge you to find something they don’t stock. More importantly, you find their lovely delicatessen team who can not only guide your choices, but will enrich your visit with stories of provenance and taste.
