Recently, our ice cream machine suffered a major breakdown and can no longer be repaired. Without it, we simply can’t produce the ice cream
When we took on Kiln Farm, we knew we were taking on more than a business – we were becoming custodians of a much-loved local farm with a long history of producing fresh milk and handmade ice cream for our community.
Like many small family farms, every penny we have goes into keeping the farm running, caring for our animals, and investing in its future. It’s been an exciting journey so far but it’s also meant that unexpected costs can be incredibly difficult to absorb.
Recently, our ice cream machine suffered a major breakdown and can no longer be repaired. Without it, we simply can’t produce the ice cream that so many of you have come to enjoy.
Replacing the machine is a significant expense, and after investing everything we could into taking on the farm, we’re asking for a little help from the community that has supported Kiln Farm for so many years.
Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly towards purchasing a new ice cream machine so we can continue making fresh, locally produced ice cream for families to enjoy for years to come.
If you’re unable to donate, simply sharing our campaign with friends and family would mean the world to us.
Thank you for supporting local farming, local food, and helping us keep this special part of our community alive.
Our goal is to raise £26,000 to purchase a replacement ice cream machine, install it, and get production back up and running as quickly as possible.
With heartfelt thanks,
Phil, Sarah , Sue , Charlotte and Alice
