RHUBARB WEEKEND

We're lucky enough to be part of the famous 'Rhubarb triangle', so rhubarb is a BIG deal for us. So much so that we are having a full weekend dedicated to RHUBARB! From sweet treats to savoury sausage rolls, our team of expert butchers, bakers & chefs manage to wow us each year with their rhubarb creations, head down to The Farm Shop this weekend and sample them all! 

Grown right here in Wakefield, forced Rhubarb is grown throughout January and February inside darks tunnels or sheds and grows up towards a single light (traditionally a candle), hence the name forced rhubarb. 

Take a look below at all things rhubarb at Blacker Hall Farm this year...

Wakefield forced rhubarb - Grown just 8 miles away

Forced rhubarb is back in our Greengrocery now! It's grown for us by Neil & Eddie at Whitegate Farm, Kirkhamgate, who are second generation farmers from the Newton family. From their farm to Blacker Hall Farm Shop is only 8 miles. Talk about local!

Rhubarb Sausage Roll

This is the perfect mix of two of our favourite things: sausage rolls & rhubarb! Chef Andy and his team use truly local rhubarb from Wakefield to create these. After all, it would be criminal to get rhubarb from anywhere else!

Our bakery team have been busy perfecting our rhubarb & cream filled scones. We may have been lucky enough to try one or two and trust us, they're a winner! Freshly made each day in our bakery & ready to pick up from our patisserie counter, alongside lots of other goodies.
