The Smiddy Farm Shop is just outside Stirling in Scotland and is a family-run establishment that has transformed a historic blacksmith’s workshop into a vibrant hub for local produce and community gatherings. Since opening in 2016, the Smiddy has become renowned for its award-winning butchery, offering meats sourced from nearby farms, such as grass-fed beef from Lochfield Farm and lamb from Auchinlay Farm in Dunblane. The on-site café provides a seasonal menu crafted from these local ingredients, allowing visitors to enjoy dishes like handmade steak pies and freshly baked cakes while taking in panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Complementing the food offerings, the farm shop features a selection of fresh fruits, vegetables, and artisanal goods, emphasizing Smiddy’s commitment to supporting local producers and providing an alternative to conventional supermarkets. It offers a unique and authentic Scottish experience for locals and travelers alike. And close by, where the epic Scottish cows rest, you will see a tree, where usually a cars park. At approximately eye level, a penguin stone hides within its trunk.
