Beadlam Farm Shop and Tea Rooms

A networking meeting was held at Mark and Jenny Rooke's Beadlam Grange tonight for the North Yorkshire Moors and Coast Partnership. It was nice to meet Kim Broderick from Yorkshire.com and thanks also to David Shields and Sarah Barrowby for organising the event and giving up their evening. Mark told us with the help of some wonderful photos how they had made a redundant building into an award winning project.They have a thriving business with a fresh meat counter mainly from the own farm animals and shop selling all sorts of goodies.Upstairs there is a really home made and baked tea shop. Sunday lunches are are 2 sittings and they often do around 100 roast dinners so if you are thinking of going it may be advisable to book.They have won lots of awards since they started and you can see why they are passionate about what they do and fly the flag high for Yorkshire produce, Jenny put on a wonderful spread of food and sent us all home with plates laden down with food.Jack is enjoying his supper as I type.
