A shop for Somersham and the surrounding villages, largely run by volunteers, please call us on 07424 955931. Our shop supplies daily essentials as well as useful ingredients, and quality goods from Suffolk and East Anglian food producers - many of whom are local, regional or national award-winners. Some producers deliver direct to us, so we all get to know each other!
Our shop is also a social & information hub, and is welcoming for volunteers and customers alike.
If you wish to order items, or simply want to pop to our shop when the products you’re after are available: please see below. Orders can be one-off or regular.
