Good afternoon,
I know we’re still a few months out, but some of you are much more organised than me and have had your Christmas menu sorted since August. If you are considering beef, you’ll be pleased to know our Christmas offering is now ready to pre-order online.
This year you will get a beef box with a centre-piece joint and plenty of other bits to keep you well-fed into the new year. You can collect from us on 7th, 14th or 21st December - see what’s in the box here.
Wreath workshop
And whilst we’re planning festive things, our favourite florist Charlotte will be back to run her wreath workshop at the farm on Saturday 30th November.
She will show you how to make your own wreath from eco-friendly materials sourced from the UK, which you will get to take home with you.
Steak spotlight: chuck rib eye
This is a brilliant alternative to rib eye as it’s a continuation of the same muscle. It is situated just above the denver and, because of some bad branding, is often mistaken for a braising cut. It actually does perfectly well with a flash fry - the muscle is harder working than the rib, but also tends to have more marbling as the marbling is a result of micro tears in the muscle that are filled with fat for protection.
The meat is really flavourful and we have plenty in stock in the fridges this week. Order here.
Supper in Saltdean
We’re hosting a supper at the Saltdean Lido this evening, with a 5 course menu celebrating Trenchmore.
I’ll be imposing on your meal to talk about the farm, so if you can stomach that then you should join us from 7pm.
They have a few last minute spots available.
Foraging supper
Greening Cowfold are hosting a foraging walk and supper at Trenchmore on Saturday 19th October.
It’s an absolute bargain at £10 pp for the walk and food, and is a great way to raise some money for Greening Cowfold and learn from Matt, who will be guiding the walk.
For more info & to book, please email Jerry at greeningcowfold@gmail.com
