👋 Many of you are new here so we wanted to share a little update on our progress Plates Farm and what it’s all about ❤️ 🇫🇷

In 2020 in rural South-West France, we took over an old farm and carefully restored it into a working luxury space centred around food, nature and creativity.

For our guests it’s a place for creative residencies, culinary retreats, private events, and time to slow down and reconnect.

The farm has also been designed as a space for our team to create, grow organic produce and develop new concepts in food & drink that will in the future feed into the London restaurant, created in direct connection with the land.

We’re only one year into the farms completion, but a lot has happened so far… including a sold-out first season of culinary retreats, which are set to return next year! ✨

Follow us over on Plates Farm to see what’s growing as the seasons change. We hope to share more of it with you all soon.

Let us introduce you to our farm.

From our restaurant in London to a working farm in South-West France.

It’s our place to grow, harvest, forage, experiment and see where nature takes us next.

The farmhouse is surrounded by gardens, orchards, and open countryside where seasonal produce, local ingredients, and our approach to plant-based cooking come together.

It’s more than a place to create, it’s a place to come together.

From intimate gatherings and creative retreats, to shared meals and seasonal events, the farm opens its doors to connections in all its forms.

Five days of food, wellness, nature and discovery in the French countryside.
