The Prince of Wales visited Bluebells in Spondon as part of his visit to Derbyshire on Friday February 18th.
The Prince of Wales met the Brown family at the ceremony for the BBC Radio 4 Food & Farming Awards in 2009, where Bluebells were runners up in the Farmer of the Year category. The Prince of Wales expressed an interest in Bluebells Dairy Ice Cream, Café and Farm Shop and followed this up with a visit to the Farm yesterday. During his visit, The Prince of Wales joined The Brown family for tea and cake, followed by a tour of the farm and cafe.
I’m sure you will all join me in sending congratulations to The Brown Family for the success they have achieved with Bluebells.
