Cosy season is here and what better way to spend it than knitting and getting crafty over a glass of wine with your mates?
Every last Wednesday of the month we will be opening up our doors for our Stitch & Wine Club starting Wednesday 28th October. There will be logs on the fire, pouring by the glass & just cause, we’ll be popping on some nostalgic throw back tunes circa 80s/90s/00s – send your requests via Instagram DM and we’ll pop it on the playlist.
Knitting, crocheting, sewing or any handy crafts welcome to join. No booking required, just bring your own project & equipment.
Babes in arms welcome.

As the evenings draw in and another growing season comes to an end, we’ll gather once again in the farm’s beautiful brick barns for a feast celebrating the people, produce and landscape that make this corner of Suffolk so special.
Long tables will be laid and we’ll serve a generous banquet inspired by everything the harvest has to offer. Expect the very best local meat, vegetables and grains from Shimpling Park Farm alongside produce from some of our favourite growers, farmers and makers across Suffolk.
Wines from Ark Wines at Mount Farm Vineyard will be served throughout the evening, bringing another taste of the Suffolk landscape to the table and accompanying the harvest feast.
The full menu will be revealed closer to the event, but as always it will champion exceptional local ingredients, cooked simply and served generously.
Like our previous suppers at Shimpling, this is an evening designed for lingering. Good food, local wine and plenty of conversation shared around the table in one of Suffolk’s most beautiful farms.
Whether you’ve joined us before or this is your first visit, we’d love to welcome you.
