ITS DOWN-TO-EARTH name belies what a quite extraordinary enterprise this Yorkshire farm shop has become and
what it achieves every day in championing local produce. Fodder is a Yorkshire Agricultural Society (YAS) project started after the 2001 foot-and-mouth outbreak to not only offer a much-needed retail outlet for local farmers but to also provide wider assistance to the rural community.
“Fodder stands for everything we, as a farming charity, believe in: a passion for Yorkshire, its farmers and local producers,” says Jo Francisco from YAS. “And we are the only farm shop cafe of its kind in the UK where 100% of our profit goes back to the charity, which helps children, teachers and rural people through education, development and support.”

Rory Stewart - The former Cabinet minister and hit podcast host talks to Alec Marsh about the parlous state of British politics, land management and his deep love of the countryside
The gently spoken 51-year-old former Conservative Cabinet minister is a countryman at heart. That's clear: he even changes into a tweed waistcoat for the interview, which takes place at his London home and begins with a question about his precise career status. Having resigned from the Commons and the Conservative Party in 2019, the former diplomat and soldier has reinvented himself, first with an unconventional but promising run as an independent for the London mayoralty (abandoned because of COVID19 in 2020) and then as a media figure, co-hosting one of the country's most popular podcasts, The Rest Is Politics, alongside Alastair Campbell, the former Labour spin doctor.
