How Advertising Works in Chippenham #9


  1. Start a very successful farm shop and cafe business on the outskirts of Chippenham
  2. Ensure you have a wide range of organic goods with which to tempt your customers
  3. Constantly change your stock so that only the freshest of items are on display
  4. Wait for a blogger with a camera to notice you've not been quite so good at changing your signage
  5. Et voila!

I think the squirrels must have taken them, just like they have from the hazel trees at the side of the house ;)

  1. Given that some people are hazy at recognising exotic vegetables etc I hope they don't go away with two artichokes to make a hazelnut cake!

  2. Those pesky squirrels, they must be hoarding them for the winter!

    I rather like the farm shop, although it's a little on the pricey side. I've been amazed and very pleased for them as their business seems to have gone from strength to strength. Actually I did use to try and do a full shop there every now and then and the price wasn't much different to Sainsbugs because I couldn't put all the ususal rubbish I would buy in a supermarket in my basket, so I ended up with a much healthier weeks shopping!

  4. EG - you've got a point there - perhaps I need to go back and put up a warning!

    RO - we can walk there and last week quite a lot of their fruit and veg was cheaper than the supermarket. However, we blew our savings on tea and cake!

    Angie - that's very kind of you - I think you're my furthest away regular reader :)

    Joanne, Debbi and Anna - ;)

Hi, let's start a conversation - right here, right now! If you have a question, I'll also endeavour to get back to you over at your place.

If anyone is having problems leaving comments, do contact me on vegplotting at gmail dot com or @malvernmeet if a quick tweet is more convenient for you.

Thanks xxx

My general policy re comments

I value genuine commenters for the conversation they bring. Those aiming to link back and give credence to commercial websites (thankfully rare) will be removed.

Blog posts are kept open for your Comments for as long as possible - for at least 3 months. I've reluctantly taken the decision if a post comes in for a sp@m attack after that time, I'll remove its Comments facility. I've found genuine comments are rarely left after 3 months, but dozens of sp@m comments are :( Removing these takes away the joy that a genuine comment might be left one day.
