Our Story old

The Veg Patch might be the new kid on the block…. But our roots are well grown within Cumbria.

We are proud to be part of Lake District Estates a family owned business with its head office located in Kendal.

The company owns and operates a selection of award winning tourist attractions, caravan parks, marina holiday apartments and retail outlets operating under Peter Rabbit and Friends.

Heritage and preservation are at the heart of the business, that operates two of the Lake Districts best-loved attractions Ravenglass & Eskdale Steam Railway and Ullswater ‘Steamers’.

Our website aims to offer family’s quality products for their children with a focus on active play and creative learning. Ok let us be honest….  there are a few things on the website which are just for fun too!!

We want the Veg patch to be more than just a website, so we have also uploaded some activity products which you can download for free, to enjoy with the kids on those rainy days, which trust us Cumbria has a few.

We are lucky to operate from the beautiful location which is the lake District. But living and working within the lake district also means we are passionate about our environment. So where possible we have sourced products which are ethical and environmentally friendly, this also feeds into our packaging which were possible is 100% recyclable.

We hope that you and the child you have purchased for… loves our products. We are always keen to hear from customers, so don’t hesitate to get in touch.
