EGGHEADS from Somerset can test their knowledge at a quiz evening complete with supper all in aid of charity at a family-run farm shop in the county this month (March 2022).
Rumwell Farm Shop & Café’s Charity Quiz & Supper Evening takes place in aid of one of its Charities of the Year, Love Musgrove, on Friday, March 18 at 7pm.
Anne Mitchell, Joint Owner of the farm shop, which is located on the A38 between Taunton and Wellington, explained: “Our quiz and supper evenings are extremely popular, so we’re thrilled to be hosting another, this time in aid of one of our Charities of the Year for 2022, Love Musgrove.
“As well as a quiz, the night will include some of our top-notch Rumwell Café dishes for people to enjoy too. It’s a great opportunity to get together, maximum eight people per team, and raise money for a great local charity. Plus, to be in with a chance of winning some wonderful prizes for each team member and the glory of taking home the Rumwell Cup.
“Our last Charity Quiz & Supper Evening in January was a great success and raised £720 for our other Charity of the Year, Reminiscence Learning.”
During the Charity Quiz & Supper Evening there will also be a raffle with a selection of prizes from our shop, our suppliers and friends. All of the money from the raffle will be donated to the charity.
Supper will be served from 7pm with hot food options followed by a choice of desserts. The supper will cost £16.99 for two courses and the price includes a £1 quiz entry fee, which will be given to the charity. Tables must be booked online via this link: https://bit.ly/3AIP0xW.

The charity also provides staff with training and development opportunities, including state of the art equipment, and enables wards to buy items to make patients’ stays more comfortable.
Musgrove Park Hospital serves a population of more than 544,000 people across Somerset with more than 740 beds, 34 wards, 15 operating theatres, a fully equipped imaging department and a purpose-built cancer treatment centre.

We really appreciate everything Rumwell and its customers are doing for us a charity. If you love your quizzing, do come along and join in!”
Rumwell Farm Shop is an independent, family-run, award-winning business owned by the Mitchell family. It was originally a potato store, when David and Anne Mitchell began selling their potatoes and free-range eggs at the gate.
Due to customer demand, the range of products soon increased, and the farm shop grew into the place it is today. David and Anne’s sons, James and Jack, are now also involved in the business, as well as daughters-in-law Sophie and Donna.
Rumwell Farm Shop has a traditional Butchery counter selling its home-reared and free-range pork and Rumwell Angus beef. There is also The Rumwell Flower Shed on-site, a Delicatessen, Bakery, Jam Kitchen, Food Hall, Wine Cellar and Gift Room.
