WE WON! 🏆 Best Farm Shop/Deli in Dorset – Muddy Stilettos Awards 2025

Farm Shop Team holding the Award

We are overjoyed to share that Gullivers Farm Shop & Kitchen has been crowned Best Farm Shop/Deli in Dorset at this year’s Muddy Stilettos Awards 2025!

This isn’t just a win for us—it’s a celebration of everything and everyone that makes Gullivers so special. From the dedicated team who put their heart into the shop each day, to the amazing people we support through our social enterprise—this award belongs to you all.

The ceremony, held at the stunning North Cadbury Court, brought together some of the most inspiring independent businesses across Dorset and Somerset. To stand among them—and win—was a truly humbling experience.

A win for inclusion, community, and heart-led enterprise

Gullivers is more than a farm shop. It’s a place where organic, local food meets purpose-driven work. Every loaf of bread, every litre of milk, and every customer interaction is infused with care—not just for quality, but for people. We work alongside adults with varying support needs, empowering individuals through real, meaningful employment and skills development.

This award recognises the power of that vision, and we couldn’t be prouder.

A huge thank you to…

  • Everyone who voted for us – your support means the world!

  • Our customers, who believe in shopping local and shopping with purpose

  • The Muddy Stilettos team for shining a light on independents like us

  • Our team, for your passion, love, and relentless commitment

  • Our friends and supporters at Sturts Community Trust, without whom none of this would be possible

And a special thanks to:
