During this remarkably slow news week, I seem to have lost a hen in the orchard. We had 6 yesterday and only 5 scampered over for the stale remnants of a loaf this morning. Only one has laid an egg for the past few days so they really are not much more than free range freeloaders at this point, but I’m still hoping number 6 is just exploring the far corners of our well-fenced orchard. Probably with a handkerchief carrying snacks tied to the end of a stick. There is no sign of a fox and the other girls seem unflustered so we’re hoping for a swift return.
It’s our summer market on Saturday 20th July and I wanted to tell you about a few of the new producers who will be joining us - scroll down for the new faces.
We also have the farm favourites - bread from Flint Owl, charcuterie from Curing Rebels, chocolate from Cocoa Loco, hot sauce from Spiced Sussex, kefir from Susana & Daughters, honey from The Sussex Bee Farm, spirits from Slake, wine from Kinsbrook, chillies & sauces from Clare’s Chillies, burgers from 3Bros, pizza from SoPi & coffee from OneFourCoffee. It’s a strong line up.
Free entry, ample parking, live music and sunshine booked in.
As for this Saturday, we have beef in the fridge and burgers on the menu - the yard shop & Moo tap is open 11am to 4pm and the burgers are served ‘til 3.30pm on Saturday.
Moxon’s Fishmongers
Robin is bringing his superbly smoked fish, which has been brined in hand-harvested Portuguese sea salt and smoked on a blend of hardwoods. We’re really looking forward to having our first fish stall at a Trenchmore market.
The Artisan Forrest Kitchen
Joanna makes a range of gut-healthy fermented foods including krauts, kimchis & vinegars in Forrest Row.
All delicious, probiotic rich, organic and made from foraged or locally grown plants.
Big Boned
Kat makes bone broth for dogs from our beef bones in small-batches that are slow-simmered for the most flavour and nutrients. Bone broth supports joint health, aids digestion, and provides essential vitamins and minerals to our four legged friends, and turns a bi-product into something delicious.
Tynefield Farm
Although not new to Trenchmore, we’re pleased to have Flavian and his pork back for this market. What is new, is that he has just launched an online shop so you can now pre-order for the market or for delivery another time.
If you opt for ‘free shipping’ and add in the notes that you want to collect it at Trenchmore on 20th July, Flavian will bring it with next week.
