farm shops

Countryside produce stores

Farm shops are retail stores located on or near farms that sell produce, meat, dairy, and other products grown or made on the premises.

They emphasize freshness and local sourcing, often offering seasonal fruits, vegetables, eggs, and baked goods directly from the farmer: We picked up some fresh strawberries at the farm shop.

The term is more common in British than American English.
