Baa-rilliant! The Lambing Shed Celebrates 10 Years of Farm-tastic Fun in Cheshire!

Can you believe it? This September, one of Cheshire’s most beloved farm shops, The Lambing Shed, is turning a whole decade old! What an incredible journey it’s been for Mick, Sue, Kathryn, and the entire team, who have spent ten years bringing us the freshest local produce, delicious meals, and a real taste of authentic Cheshire farming life.

For over 65 years, the Mitchell family has lovingly worked the land at Moseley Hall Farm, guided by a simple, powerful philosophy: ‘fresh, local, and simple.’

This isn’t just a tagline; it’s the very heartbeat of The Lambing Shed. From Farmer Mick and his son Robert expertly tending to over 2,500 sheep and 250 beef cattle (including British Blue, Limousine, Charolais, and Long Horn!), to Sue crafting beautiful hampers and Kathryn overseeing the bustling operations, this family passion shines through in everything they do.

What started in a building that once housed sheep 60 years ago has blossomed into an award-winning farm shop and kitchen, a true hub for celebrating their own home-reared, Red Tractor Farm Assured beef and lamb, alongside a treasure trove of Cheshire’s finest food and drink. They’re all about that ‘farm to table’ magic, ensuring every bite is as fresh and flavourful as can be.

Get Ready to Party: Introducing Farm Fest!

To mark this incredible 10-year milestone, The Lambing Shed is throwing open its gates for their very first Farm Fest on Saturday, September 20th – and trust us, you won’t want to miss it! They’re promising a festival to remember, packed with entertainment, delicious food, and fun for all ages.
