The first Surrey Produce Festival: Sunday 4th July
Posted on 30/06/10
Plenty to see, taste and buy on panoramic Box Hill.
Organised by the National Trust in partnership with Surrey Gourmet Catering, the first Surrey Produce Festiva is not “just another Farmer’s Market”. The concept of the festival is to See – Taste – Buy. All stallholders will embrace this theme, so will bring things for visitors to see or be shown. This could include raw ingredients, traditional tools to make products, or the processes and stages involved in production. There will also be abundant samples for visitors to taste, and chances for people to buy these wonderful products from our local producers.
Local producers will be bringing with them beers and wines, cakes and fudges, sausages and meats, fish and shellfish, eggs and cheeses, curries, relishes and preserves. And many more. Don’t miss the BBQ chicken stall, offering free range Surrey chicken in 10 types of marinade!
There will also be a series of demonstrations, including local Surrey chef Tom Turvill. In the morning, Tom will be showing how different cuts of Surrey lamb can be used at home, and in the afternoon he’ll be working with Surrey Pork. Tom will be showing how to cook these meats, with plenty of opportunities for visitors to see, try, taste and be inspired by recipe ideas.
The festival will be taking place on the Donkey Green at the top of Box Hill, between 10am and 4pm. Admission is free. There will be plenty of food and drink to see, taste and buy.
