Taste of The Rooftop Farm
Join us for an exclusive evening with The Rooftop Farm Wimbledon!
Hosted in The Fire Station Café, this special event celebrates the flavours of our urban farm through a tasting experience from some of our favourite local chefs, each showcasing ingredients grown right here on our rooftop.
Throughout the evening, you’ll be taken up to The Rooftop Farm in groups of 10 for a guided tour of our ‘Mushroom Lab’ and ‘Urban Farm’. Our farmers will be on hand to explain how our operation works, what we’re growing (now and coming up!), a few of our plans for the future and to answer any questions you may have.
Guests will be welcomed with a cocktail (or mocktail) crafted using honey from our rooftop hives at The Fire Station Café before hearing from our special guests and even tasting a few bites which have been crafted using produce grown up on the farm. Our special guests include:
- Vanessa Marx, Head Chef at The Bingham Riverhouse, Richmond, who feature our mushrooms on their menu
- Our resident beekeeper, Barnaby Shaw, will give a short talk about our beekeeping process and how our honey is produced
- LuLa’s Patties, local business producing delicious Caribbean patties – now available to purchase at the café
- Thrift Bakery – serving up a delicious sweet treat made with The Farm’s very own Honey
We’ll also be serving up additional drinks from Wimbledon Brewery, a fellow local Wimbledon-based business, which can be purchased from The Fire Station Café.
Every guest will receive a tote bag from The Rooftop Farm and a jar of our honey (retail value £11). Mushrooms will also be available to purchase on the night.
This event will be held from 6pm – 8pm on Thursday 12th June 2025.
Please note that the farm is located on the roof of Wimbledon Quarter and access is via a metal staircase. Therefore, with much regret, the event won’t be suitable for all.
Due to the nature of the event, we are only able to serve the dishes listed above. Unfortunately, we are unable to cater for allergies.
The event is suitable for those aged 15 and above.
