Good afternoon,

Or is it evening already? It has been a dark, damp few weeks and hunkering down with a lit fire, full glass and something delicious in the oven continues to be an appealing prospect. Whilst there’s usually few things more lovely and ritualistic than spending December evenings in the pub with old pals, if you are planning to host at home or simply stay in - and in this weather, who could blame you - we’ve got fridges full of slow grown grass-fed Sussex Wagyu steaks, roasting joints and braising cuts.

We’re selling Trenchmore Farm gift vouchers, which can be spent online or at the yard shop and a physical voucher can be posted to you or your recipient, and Garlic Wood are offering butchery course vouchers for the new year, which will be held at Trenchmore.

And if you’re already over the Christmas hype and are looking towards the new year with impatience, we have insisted on Sam Lambert coming back to host a second valentine’s steak night in 2025, which you can book here.

We’re open for the next three Saturdays with burgers, drinks and farm produce, and then we will be closing the farm gates for January.

Hope to see you in the yard in the meantime,

Rachel
