The Farmhouse Biscuit story begins many years ago in Lancashire at Higher Oaklands Farm when the McIvor family began baking and selling traditionally made biscuits. Over time, demand for the biscuits grew and in 1973 the decision was made to stop farming and become devoted to the production of delicious biscuits.

As time marched on and the business flourished more space was needed and eventually it was time to move from the farm. So, in 1978 relocation to bigger premises in Nelson was necessary. Despite the new setting the desire to retain our traditional baking methods remained and the business continued to grow.
