Healthy Eating

We would like to share with you some of the places where we love to shop which offer a fabulous variety of delicious, local, healthy food and drink. (And more, many of them are cafes and coffee shops too).

Perthshire has wonderful produce, including fresh fruit and vegetables, wild game, and locally produced meat. There are also bakers and cake makers, chocolatiers and whisky distillers so you are in for a treat when you embark on a self-catering holiday at Ardormie Farm Cottage.

Payments can be made by cash, bank transfer or contactless card payments.

Peter Marshalls Farms Shop is just outside Alyth and it is such a pleasure to buy freshly picked raspberries, strawberries and blueberries when they are in season. They just taste so much better when they haven’t been chilled and transported. We all have to buy extra as some rarely make it home in the car! This wonderful little farm shop also sells locally produced vegetables, eggs, Wild Hearth Bakery bread on certain days of the week and many more goodies. Denhead Farms just outside Coupar Angus are another great stop and a must during asparagus season. Scottish asparagus in season is a seriously delicious thing.

Mitchell’s Newsagent in Blairgowrie is indeed a newsagent but not only do they have an array of plants outside which are difficult to resist, they also double as a Health Food Store with vegan products and separate vegan shelves. Cornerstone Deli is just along the street and they have lots of healthy homemade treats include vegetarian and vegan options on Meat Free Mondays. They also stock Wild Heath Bakery bread, such a treat.
