If you're in the area around Corsham and Lacock, May's Greengrocers in Gastard deserves a stop.
It's a genuine greengrocer and farm shop that stocks fresh produce from nearby farms, offering something you won't find at a standard supermarket. The seasonal fruits and vegetables are chosen for quality and flavor, and you'll taste the difference immediately.
Beyond the fresh produce, there's a thoughtfully curated selection of local provisions. You can find freshly baked bread, free-range eggs, artisan cheeses, and homemade preserves and chutneys – all ideal if you're putting together a picnic or provisioning a self-catering cottage. It's a real window into the local food scene, supporting growers and makers across the Wiltshire countryside. The staff actually know what they're selling, and the whole place has that authentic community atmosphere rather than feeling like it's just after passing trade.
Whether you're visiting Corsham Court or Lacock Abbey nearby, or simply passing through Gastard, it's a convenient spot to pick up excellent local ingredients for your day out. Many visitors also grab something special to take home as a genuine taste of what the area produces.
