When you arrive at St John's Farm in Beachamwell, the farm workers are busily prepping the just picked asparagus spears and bundling them ready for sale in the tiny little building that serves as a farm shop.
It's all about local produce: tomatoes (grown at the British Sugar factory at Wissington), Norfolk cordials, strawberries from Claire Pickles at Brandon and this weekend only fresh Beachamwell lamb - whole, half or just a joint - is available before it heads to the freezer.
It's more time consuming shopping this way, and there's limited product choice, but tonight's dinner of prosciutto wrapped salmon served with baked asparagus, olives, tomatoes and chilli more than makes up for it.
