Good morning,
Our Festive Market is in two week’s time tomorrow and we cannot wait to see a full farmyard of merry making. Cold fingers clasped around cosy cups of something delicious, bopping bobble hats listening to the live music and people perusing the market stalls for something special to eat or take home.
Our lineup celebrates some of the best local chefs, distillers, chocolatiers, farmers, bakers and makers, and we are all excited to see you. Scoot down the page for a flavour of what’s to come.
You can pre-order cups of mulled cider or juice for £3 here, and all proceeds will be doubled by the Big Give campaign and then donated to Brighton based homeless charity, JustLife.
We’re open as usual this Saturday from 11am-4pm and the shop is stocked with beautifully marbled Sussex Wagyu beef, Trenchmore wheat, fresh eggs & cider.
Barcombe Nurseries
Supplying organic produce from their Sussex farm along with locally & sustainably sourced fruit & veg, Barcombe will have plenty to stock up on and information about signing up to their local veg box scheme.
Slake Spirits
Winner of the highly coveted Great Taste Golden Fork Award, Tom’s spirits & aperitifs are made in Shoreham and would make an excellent gift for someone special, or maybe just find their way into your own drinks cabinet.
Cocoa Loco
Based up the lane from us, Sarah & Rory have been making their ethical & organic chocolate in West Sussex since 2005.
They work with farms in the Dominican Republic who are growing organic cacao in gaps in the rainforest canopy, not from clear-cut areas.
Properly fair trade & delicious.
Clare’s Chillis
A Trenchmore staple, Clare will be selling her plants, chillis and sauces at the market - all delicious and grown right next to our farm.
Plus, her husband Andy will have his 3ft-4ft Christmas trees for sale. Get in touch for more info.
Susana & Daughters Kefir
Based on the Cowdray Estate in the South Downs, Susana makes her kefir from a single, free-range dairy herd and sells it in glass bottles, which can be refilled. It is deliciously creamy and teaming with gut-healthy probiotics.
Gwyn’s Bakery
Set up & run by Ben Lines, who has worked in 1, 2 & 3 Michelin starred kitchens, Gwyn’s focuses on British ingredients, sourdoughs baked from scratch everyday and perfectly flakey pastries with seasonal fillings.
My Posy Neighbour
Charlotte is running a wreath workshop and selling pre-made wreaths for you to take home.
All the gorgeous foliage Charlotte uses is sourced from the UK and eco-friendly.
The workshop is pre-book only and will include a light lunch and welcome drink.
Tin Roof Pizza
When not doing the trade deliveries for Trenchmore Farm, Barny makes hand stretched, wood fired Neapolitan style pizzas from his 1956 Dodge pickup. He’s normally very busy with weddings & events, so we’re chuffed to have the Trenchmore X Tin Roof debut at this year’s Festive Market.
The Syndicate Kitchen
Michael & Jon will be cooking & serving up smokey BBQ sandwiches, using Trenchmore beef and locally sourced and seasonal ingredients.
Plus sides & something sweet to finish.
