About The Secret Farm

---

The Secret Farm operates as a seasonal family-owned enterprise that provides an opportunity for visitors to engage in the delightful experience of "pick your own" (PYO) produce, including fruits, vegetables, and flowers. Whether it's for preparing scrumptious meals, delectable desserts, preserving for later use, making jam, or simply relishing the fresh flavors, our offerings cater to various preferences. Nestled amidst picturesque rural landscapes, atop a hill that provides panoramic views of Moggerhanger, the farm also hosts open events where guests can enjoy food, refreshments, and explore designated play areas.

LOCALLY GROWN FRUIT and VEG.
The Secret Farm was first open to the public in 2021. It is based in Moggerhanger, Bedfordshire. All available to PYO (Pick Your Own) seasonally.

The Secret Farm is a family run business open seasonally offering ‘pick-your-own’ (PYO) fruit, vegetables and flowers. Officially started in 1966 when Robert Anderson became self-employed as a market gardener during a period of difficult beginnings.

Robert started working on the Farm for his Grandad when he was just a boy at 16, before becoming self-employed and running his own land. Shortly after starting he took some of his own produce to London in his car and found his first few customers.

He bought a Bedford TK lorry and started delivering to his newly acquired customers in London. In the beginning he only sold his own produce but quickly began buying produce from local farmers as demand grew.

David Anderson started work for his dad at the age of 17 and between them the business grew rapidly.

Skip to today – we are now open to the public on specific event days.

Why are we called The Secret Farm?

Not many people knew we exisited or where we were situated in Moggerhanger as we have never been open to the public prior to 2021.

Before we first opened to the public we had a little play by releasing clues where the new ‘Pick You Own’ (PYO) pumpkin patch would be located. It is now to be know as the SECRET PUMPKIN, followed by a closing spectacular firework display SECRET FIREWORKS.

What other secrets will be revealed?

FARMING LOCALLY.
The farm is situated on the outskirts of Moggerhanger Village within Central Bedfordshire.

Being on a main road, the village enjoys easy access from Bedford, Sandy, Biggleswade and surrounding areas.

The rivers Great Ouse and Ivel join just north of Blunham. Close by to the South, partly on a low ridge, is the village of Moggerhanger. It was originally a hamlet of the parish of Blunham until becoming an ecclesiastical parish in its own right in 1860 and a civil parish in 1866.
