FROM THE LAND
Champions of farming slow and all things homegrown, welcome to our little slice of heaven on the Dorset and Somerset border.
A traditional free-range Tamworth pig farm with a difference, you’ll find The Story Pig & Lavender Keepers Café nestled in the rolling hills of Dorset, on the Somerset and Dorset borders, close to the historic market town of Sherborne.
Since starting with two pigs in 2015, we’ve made it our mission to give visitors a taste of the good life with homegrown British pork, artisan produce and scandi bakes. A marriage made out of hearty food and hard work, James, the farmer, and Charlotte, the Swedish baker have created a little slice of countryside heaven, making our off-grid farm a foodie destination for all.
Eat, drink, relax and soak up the homegrown hospitality and spectacular west country views at our Dorset lavender field café – every visit brings joy.
