Every village needs a proper fruit and veg shop — somewhere you can pop in for a single apple or something fresh for tonight’s tea (and not come out with three things you didn’t mean to buy!).

When Lanchester risked losing its greengrocer, Andy stepped in with his Mam and Aunty Wendy and took over in November 2022. Rebranded as Lanchester Country Basket, the family-run shop was given a fresh new look and a new lease of life.
Despite being new to retail, they were determined to keep this much-loved local service going. Today, Andy runs the shop with help from Pam and Ian, with Sue (Mam) and Aunty Wendy supporting — especially when it’s full-on flower season for Valentine’s and Mother’s Day!

Proudly local, the team stock fresh produce and a growing range of locally sourced dairy products, all served with friendly chat and a bit of banter.
Quality food, fair prices, and proper village service — just how it should be.
