Isle of Wight Attractions

We have genuine passion and a love for good food, taking pride in all that we sell aiming to provide the very best in quality and variety in fresh local Isle of Wight produce, bringing Island farmers and food producers direct to you.

Our ideal location right in the heart of the Island at Arreton Old Village makes our Isle of Wight farm shop a convenient stop for you to experience one of the best selections of local and speciality foods.

Farmer Jacks Farm Shop originally opened in 2005, a partnership of two established Island farmers with the shared aim of providing quality and variety, reducing food miles, and promoting and supporting the wide range of local produce available from the many farmers and food producers of the Isle of Wight.

Between the two farming families the Brown's and Pierce's have an agricultural heritage that spans several generations. Amongst the range of produce they grow are some of the most sought after seasonal delicacies, all of which are readily available from Farmer Jacks Farm Shop when in season.

These seasonal delights include asparagus, cherries, apricots, strawberries, pumpkins, squash and of course sweetcorn which is celebrated every September at the annual Sweetcorn Fayre.

Thanks to the overwhelming support of friends, family and loyal customers as well as heightened interest and awareness of buying local food among the general public, June 2010 saw the long awaited arrival of the new purpose built Farmer Jacks Farm Shop.

The new shop with the addition of our in house butcher, delicatessen and the food hall has enabled Farmer Jacks to significantly increase choice and variety offering inspiration to many a discerning and curious shopper. It has also reinforced our ongoing campaign to support the local community by promoting fresh local seasonal produce and good honest food that is sourced with passion.
