Oak Farm Tea Rooms (Pathways Shropshire Ltd)

Full Member logo.jpg  The Oak Farm Tea Rooms opened in September 2006 in the village of Ditton Priors.  The interior is bright and traditional, with a seasonal farm-fresh menu of light lunches, homemade cakes and drinks. Outside, there is a patio area where vistors can enjoy the tranquil surroundings. The gardens, which include a herb garden and small orchard, are maintained by Green Horizons staff and volunteers.

The building is situated next door to Oak Farm, a smallholding run by Shropshire County Council as a day service for adults with learning disabilities. The relationship between the tea rooms and Oak Farm is a synergistic one - a number of service users at the farm have taken the opportunity to undertake work-based catering training with Pathways-Shropshire at the tea rooms, and many of the ingredients for the tea rooms' seasonal menu come from the farm, including vegetables and eggs.

There are also plans to develop the site further by using buildings at the rear of the tea rooms to create a village archive in partnership with the Ditton Local History Group, and also relocate and expand the local farm shop from its existing site at Oak Farm next door.
