Rastrick Villa Farm Shop & Café Here at Villa Farm we sell a wide range of fabulous food and drink that’s been grown and produced right here in Yorkshire by artisan producers. From home reared meat to homemade cakes to pies, cheeses and preserves. Our on-site butchery makes award winning sausages, burgers and kebabs, all with meat from our own and local farms. Ideal for the BBQ season! We stock a wide range of Yorkshire gins and beers and our deli boasts a wide selection of Yorkshire cheeses, cooked meats, home- made cakes and delicious tray bakes plus much more. The Old Forge @ Villa Farm offers a mouth-watering menu with daily specials, all day breakfasts, delicious home-made cakes and afternoon teas. The café menu is created by the Head Chef utilising produce from our butchery and farm shop, giving our guests the opportunity to buy in the shop, produce they have tasted in the café. All food served is home or locally produced. The Old Forge holds evening events too such as gin festivals and themed evenings. Our gluten free range is very popular in both the shop and the café. The butchers make their own gluten free sausages and burgers and the kitchen bakes delicious gluten free scones. We also have a wide selection of gluten free pies available in the shop. Villa Farm Shop & Café is a family concern following five generations, starting out as a dairy and poultry farm and then building up a wholesale delivery business of our home-produced milk and eggs. In 2009 the family decided to develop the shop which now includes a butchery and a delicatessen and most recently, a popular café known as The Old Forge. We are dedicated to reducing food miles as much as possible and along with producing our own Aberdeen Angus beef, lamb, Villa Farm eggs and homemade cakes and quiches, we also make award winning sausages and award-winning home cured bacon. Junior cricketers and parents all appear to be enjoying themselves. The off-season is a difficult time for Rastrick as we have ongoing costs but much reduced bar takings during the winter months. This is where the big challenges come in trying to keep the till ringing when there is no cricket to attract people.

Tel: 01484 421782 www.villafarmshop.co.uk We organise lots of social events with varying degrees of success but it’s fair to say that we always look forward to the start of the season both in sporting and financial terms. Our plans for 2019 are to put the club on a strong financial footing by boosting our bar revenue through an increased number of functions. We want the Club to be a focal point for the local community and in use all of the time - it’s a Cricket Club but we cannot survive through cricket alone so we need to continue to run the Club as a business … and then hopefully the cricket will look after itself. www.sportip.biz 49
