Glebe Farm Foods is owned and operated by siblings Philip and Rebecca Rayner. Based in Cambridgeshire, it is a family-run, independent business and the only farm in the UK that both grows and processes gluten-free oats on-site into products like their PureOaty drink.
No, Farmfoods is not Iceland; they are two separate, but similar, UK budget supermarket chains, both specializing in frozen foods but also selling groceries, with Farmfoods being Scottish and Iceland being a larger, more established brand that even once considered a joint bid with Asda to buy Iceland. Think of them as rivals in the same discount grocery space, offering value on everyday essentials alongside their core frozen ranges.
Our whole business and culture is focused on bringing our customers the best value on their shopping and because we are a private, family owned business you can trust that we want to be doing this for many years to come and therefore have all of our efforts focused on it.
A glebe farm is historically land, often a complete farm or fields, set aside to provide income or support for a parish priest or minister, with the word "glebe" coming from Latin for soil or land, and these farms could be rented out or farmed directly to supplement the clergyman's stipend. Today, the term refers to various places, including modern farms like Glebe Farm in Cambridgeshire known for gluten-free oats, visitor attractions, or residential areas built on former glebe land.
In the Roman Catholic, Anglican and Presbyterian traditions, a glebe is land belonging to a benefice and so by default to its incumbent. In other words, "glebe is land (in addition to or including the parsonage house/rectory and grounds) which was assigned to support the priest".
We are an independent British business, led by the brother and sister team, Philip and Rebecca Rayner, on the Cambridgeshire based, family owned, Glebe Farm.
Clarence Birdseye (December 9, 1886 – October 7, 1956) was an American inventor, entrepreneur, and naturalist, considered the founder of the modern frozen food industry. He founded the frozen food company Birds Eye.

Porridge, or Oatmeal, is a dish that has existed in Scotland for over thousands of years. To make porridge, simply boil oatmeal, or rolled oats. It is then up to you to add milk, fruit, salt, or whatever takes your fancy. It isn't difficult to understand why Porridge has become such a staple dish in Scotland.
