Save Hadlow College Farm Shop

The Issue

Please sign this petition to show the new owners of Hadlow College that there is a great deal of support in the community to keep the farm shop open so it can continue to:

  • Be a lifeline for the community, especially for the vulnerable
  • Allow our community to shop locally and conveniently seven days a week, with the opportunity to use public transport, cycle or walk
  • Cut food transport miles by stocking fresh, locally grown produce
  • Link Hadlow College’s aim of promoting good agricultural and horticultural practice by showcasing local fare, including that produced by the College and Princess Christian’s Farm
  • Give the students an opportunity to experience the commercial environment

Hadlow College and Princess Christian’s Farm (for students with learning difficulties) plus two other sites became part of North Kent College on 1 August 2020.

Hadlow College Farm Shop, Ashes Lane (off the A26 between Tonbridge and Hadlow opposite The Rose Revived pub) has played a vital role in our neighbourhood for many years. During lockdown, its staff have gone above and beyond to serve the community. Please help us not to lose it.
