Just a note for those self isolating

if there is anything you wish to buy at Country Matters from fruit and veg to store cupboard staples and then on to yarn, gifts and crockery there are two ways to go about it. On a Sunday you can make an appointment to have the shop to yourself (apart from me) to browse to your hearts content. If you would like items delivered then again the only person you will see if me when I deliver and I can also take contactless payment at that point.

To aid both those methods I will be posting an in depth video of our items for sale in the next couple of weeks.

I hope this helps

It seems like we’ve left summer behind so this week I’ve got cabbages, cauliflower, broccoli, onions, carrots etc for sale this week. No soft fruit but have mangoes, melon, apples 

We still await our order of new yarns from King Cole, sad for us but great for them they have had unprecedented levels of orders and now have a backlog of around a week.  Fingers crossed for a delivery at the end of this week

the yarn has landed!!

Nikki is in charge this morning - she’s our resident jam queen.
Coming soon or already in stock are:- marmalades, apricot jam, Black Forest jam, rhubarb jam, 4 berry jam, raspberry jam.
If you have a special request then pop down and see her this morning

This coming week and for the foreseeable future we will be open Thursday, Friday and Saturday - 11am to 4pm each day
Should there be any change to this we’ll let you know ASAP

DATE FOR YOUR DIARY
Country Matters will open its doors for the first time since 25th March on Thursday 23rd July
We will be opening all day Thursday and Friday morning until 1pm and if possible (and if you would like to come) please contact us and give a time.
We’re going to use our first visitors to test the waters with our new systems and we will welcome constructive suggestions.
Look forward to hearing from you
Please feel free to share
Helen, Debbie and the team

Please note that during lockdown I am running a pop up shop on Thursdays and Fridays to sell fruit and veg, open 11.30 - 1.30

|If you would like to buy anything else then this can be ordered and then collected and paid for (card payments preferred) outside of the main shop.  As an alternative I can also deliver - free within a 5 mile radius and then a small charge thereafter.

Keep safe

As the tearoom is now closed on a Sunday Country Matters is pleased to be able to offer a very simple 'pit stop' service.

Tea/Coffee/Hot Chocolate and a couple of biscuits for £1.20

No frills but a good quality cuppa!

Every Thursday fresh and local (as much as possible) produce is purchased from a local supplier or even direct from a local grower.   Orders can be taken in advance if you wish. 

Typically we stock - free range eggs, onions, carrots and salad items etc and seasonally - strawberries, raspberries, courgettes, apples, plums etc

Every Thursday between 11am and 1pm we currently have knitting and crochet learning and social sessions. 

We may possibly be adding sewing sessions on a Thursday afternoon if we get the interest
