GREATEST little store, with the most friendly, community based owners who show a genuine interest in you, and all their produce. They have everything you need and highly recommend. Get there before Sunday and you’ll get the last of the best Kentish berries…until next summer! PS - thank you for all your positive support over the last few months!

Quite surprised by the range of items available here, We should support our local shops a little more these days, or risk losing them altogether.

We met the new owners of The Little Marden Farm Shop shortly after it reopened last year. Ever since we have been completely in love with this amazing shop. From fresh produce to locally supplied cheeses and produce, to lovely flowers and home-made cakes, if we ever need a friendly smile, chat or yummy food & drink we always come here! Would recommend to anyone, Adele & Helen are the loveliest people you could ever hope to meet!

Best farm shop around! The Little Marden Farm Shop is a joy to visit. Their products are incredibly varied and locally sourced. The owners, Adele and Helen, are so passionate about their business. I thoroughly recommend their products and would urge all Marden residents to fully support this wonderful business.

Such a shame I was looking for a farm shop and this was the nearest while on holiday. I walked in the shop as the woman was talking to someone I got completely ignored then when a new customer had come in she stopped her conversation with the person and had a conversation with the person who she clearly new. Moral of the story is I suppose unless you live in the village you get ignored... walked straight back out.. customer service is poor. Plus side is nice farm shop.

I am the owner of Teston Bakery who has supplied this farm shop for almost 4 years. Rachel stopped paying my invoices in November but continued ordering even though they knew they were in trouble. They even brought on a new bakery in October! Today I found out they had closed the shop and clearly have no intention of paying me for November/December 2021. As a baker I get up at 2am to produce breads for customers like Rachel and in these difficult times to be left unpaid is passing the problem to suppliers like us. I understand that she also runs a flower business in Marden village. DO NOT do business with this person! Per Nevrin, Teston Bakery, Kent

Great fruit and veg selection incl large range of locally grown Apples Pears etc. Includes chilled salad counter and lovely selection of local cheeses and fresh soups. Also has wonderful selection of local pickles, chutneys, salad dressings incl Benendens, a few local ciders and pressés too. Beautiful artisan fresh bread delivery every Saturday but get your order in, very popular. Also has a lovely (small) selection of T cakes. Finally, just started getting some fresh dates in, beautiful.

Unreliable and unprofessional florist. Let me down 2 weeks before my wedding. Rachel agreed to do the flowers for my July wedding which had been cancelled the previous year due to the pandemic. I was happy to be able to support a small local business in such uncertain times but wish I hadn’t used Rachel from the farm shop. The lack of communication throughout has been staggering. When I voiced my concerns due to the lack of engagement I finally get a text not to worry everything is fine only to be met with more silence. 2 weeks before my big day after once more instigating the contact, Rachel texts me there is a problem then ignores my follow up text leaving a devastated bride to be trying to find a reliable florist who can actually deliver with days to go. I’m still waiting for Rachel’s response and doubt it will be forthcoming. What should be a happy time has been made a sadder one due to such unprofessional behaviour and compounded a stressful situation even more. My advice for anyone planning a special event is go elsewhere for your flowers and save yourself the heartache and worry.

Super fresh produce, in terms of both quality and variety. Great selection of deli and home baked products too, as well as top quality flowers. All served with a smile from the lovely friendly staff! They do a great black market in carrots....

An excellent shop selling good local produce. The cakes and pastries are especially good, also fruit and vegetables, milk and even ice-cream! The lady who served me was very friendly, I will definitely stop by again.
