Our Charity

Fodder is a place where customers can enjoy exceptional products, inspiration, and friendly service. And because all of our profits go to charity, by eating and shopping at Fodder, customers are supporting the Yorkshire Agricultural Society, reinvesting in the future of farming and the countryside.

Fodder – Great Yorkshire Food Hall, alongside The Great Yorkshire Events Centre, and Harrogate Caravan Park are a family of commercial businesses located on the Great Yorkshire Showground and owned by the Yorkshire Agricultural Society. The Society is a registered charity and all profits from these businesses fund the charitable work of the Society, helping to develop an environment where farming, food and the countryside thrives and grows.
