Devon Farm Kitchen is celebrating its second year of delivering ‘Deliciously Satisfying’ handmade frozen meals to people in their homes across South Devon. Launched in March 2021 with the sole purpose of raising funds for Rowcroft Hospice, the social enterprise has gone from strength to strength, to date delivering over 55,000 meals made using locally sourced ingredients from local suppliers.
“We’re delighted that our meals are proving so popular with customers across the region because for each meal sold, every penny of profit goes to support Rowcroft Hospice in delivering specialist care to people living with life-limiting illnesses across 300 miles of South Devon,” says Joe Bradshaw, Manager of Devon Farm Kitchen. “Since launching in Torbay in 2021 we have accomplished so much including doubling our delivery area to include Kingsbridge, Salcombe, Modbury and the outlying villages towards Plymouth and Exeter. We’ve also increased our range to over 60 dishes by launching a new menu and a range of smaller dishes such as Beef stroganoff, Catalan fish stew and Vegetarian moussaka in response to customers’ suggestions. We have also been awarded several awards from Taste of the West and Food Drink Devon as well as being a finalist in Torbay’s social enterprise of the year award. I am immensely proud of our team.”
The menu treats you to a scrumptious range of mains, desserts, and sides that are made using locally sourced produce from Devon’s fabulous suppliers. Popular dishes include Roast chicken, Lamb loin chops, Brixham fish pie, Tofu curry, Liver bacon & onions and for dessert, Orchard apple crumble, Lemon curd sponge pudding and Bread and butter pudding. Devon Farm Kitchen’s motto is: local produce for local people while supporting local care.
“Our meals are exceptionally tasty, and we’re told by our customers that the quality of our food far exceeds similar products on the market,” says Joe. “The freshly frozen meals come ready to heat on ceramic plates and bowls which are then washed and returned to the driver on the next delivery. There’s no plastic involved and the cardboard packaging is 100% carbon neutral, fully compostable and 100% recyclable“.
