JC Country - Men and Women's Country Clothing Store

Hello, I'm John Carr. I'm the JC in JC Country. I divide my time between the store and the dairy herd that my family has farmed here for four generations. I've been farming since I was a boy, back when the milking was carried out in the sheds (shippons) where our cafe now stands.

I got my first taste of working in a shop when visiting my mother's family's farm. They ran a successful store and I always loved its friendly atmosphere and the fact that you could buy things there you just couldn't get anywhere else. It's what led me to convert the old shippons into a shop. We started small in 2002. Farm supplies, clothing and a tea room were all crammed into the space now occupied by our cafe.

Growing up

Nowadays JC Country is part outdoor clothing specialist, part quality pet supply store and part cafe. As we've grown we've converted more of the old farm buildings to fit it all in. If ever you're in north Lancashire why not pay us a visit? We'd love to see you.

A life outdoors

You can't be a farmer without getting your feet muddy. I've been outdoors, in all weathers, all my life. I know how good getting outdoors makes you feel. It's good for the soul. And that's what JC Country's about. It's about getting out there, experiencing nature at its best, whether that's the rolling countryside or the confines of your garden - because you'll always see something you've never noticed before, wherever you are.

Someone once told me that JC Country's not just a country store; it's a way of life. I like that. I hope you do too.

JC Country - It's more than a country store. It's a way of life
