Newsletter 13th October

Good afternoon,

Tomorrow is our Autumn Market and the weather is looking glorious. There will be music, delicious things to enjoy and jolly times to be had from 11am - 4pm.

If anyone coming tomorrow might also like to take home some of our hens, we have about 25 still looking for their forever gardens. We’ve saved the best (fastest & most flighty) ‘till last, so you’d be taking home a jolly good clucker. Assuming you can get a coop set up in time, let me know today and we’ll have them ready for you at 11am. They’re £5 each, and still laying like total troopers.

We’re also swapping apples for the last time tomorrow, so bring us all the apples you can get your hands on (no bramleys please) and we’ll send you off with some cider, or give you a token for the bar.

The fridge is full of steak, joints & braising which you can collect tomorrow.

The farm tour leaves the yard at midday - Andrew will be loitering around the coffee truck with his mic if you’d like to join him. It’s an hour’s walk through the fields so bring appropriate footware.

And lastly, I’m really pleased to let you know that our snazzy new loo block now has accessible toilets for anyone who might need it. There’s a gentle ramp to get in so please give us a shout at the bar if you need a hand getting up.

Clare’s Chillies

If you’ve been to Trenchmore, you will likely have met our Clare.

Chilli grower & knower, maker of delicious jams & sauces and all round farm favourite, Clare will be stepping away from the Silly Moo bar and onto the chilli stall.

Curing Rebel

Charcuterie made in Brighton by the chaps behind The Herb Kitchen, Dan & Will.

Big flavours, ethical meat & conscious packaging - we are super pleased to have them in the yard for the first time.

The Kenyan Pig Farmer

Previously looking after the Plumpton College pigs, Flavian has just taken over his own tenancy at Tynefield Farm in Hampshire, and will be sampling & selling his tasty Tamworth pork with us.

Slake Spirits

Tasty tipples distilled in Worthing - it’s always a pleasure to have Tom in the yard, and we’re pleased you get to restock your drinks cabinets with the good stuff.

He won Great Taste’s Golden Fork a year or so ago, which is testament to just how tasty his tipples are.

Susana & Daughters

Creamy kefir from the grass-fed Cowdray Estate dairy herd, and flavourful olive oil from Susana’s family farm in Spain.

Susana is passionate about good food that is grown well, so is a perfect fit for the Trenchmore markets.
