Churchfields is an historic Worcestershire farm surrounded by open countryside in this delightful part of The Heart of England. It is situated in the village of Salwarpe on the edge of Droitwich Spa.
The farm has been in our family for five generations now, with three generations currently living onsite. Will & Gillian run the day to day operations, along with their children Edward, Louisa and Jennifer who all get involved in different ways. Granny Fizz is also an active member of the farm, keeping everyone in check.
Five generations of history
Originally a working dairy farm producing award-winning milk, it was always our family’s dream to diversify into ice cream. This dream became a reality in 2004 when the first scoop of Churchfields Farmhouse Ice Cream was made. Following on from this success, we have more recently launched Droitwich Salt, a heritage product with roots back to the Bronze Age.
Our vision is to create an educational and family friendly destination suitable for all generations. With this in mind, two of our former barns have been converted into the Cowshed Restaurant, the Barn Café and our Farm Shop.
A greener future
We understand that human beings need to respect our environment and work as harmoniously as is possible within it. As such, Churchfields has undertaken several green and sustainability inititatives to help minimize our carbon footprint and preserve our picturesque environment for future generations.
Our values
Quality not Quantity
We never compromise on the quality of our produce, or the homecooked food in our Barn & Kitchen. For our ice creams, sorbets and Droitwich Salt, we are audited and certified by SALSA, a food safety standard for small-medium sized businesses.
Our People
We know that we are only as good as the people working with us. We invest in training to ensure everyone gets to grow in the way they want to, and always try to have a laugh!
Happy, healthy cows
Beef farming can be hard work for cows, so we make sure that all our cows are kept comfortable, warm and most importantly, healthy.
Investing in future generations
It’s important to us that we pass the farm on to our kids in a better state than we found it. In everything we do we consider our environmental impact, and have a sustainability programme to protect and enhance the farm’s biodiversity and reduce our carbon footprint.
Community spirit goes a long way
As far as possible we source local products, support local people and supply local businesses. We are involved in local fund-raising activities, biodiversity initiatives and farm tours for kids.
Customer service
We are committed to the very best customer service possible. We operate as efficiently as possible, and will always try to accommodate any special requests.
Family comes first
Above all, we are a family business and a family home; and we love what we do.
