[Customers_ellenden.harvington.net] Fresh Meat & Our Own Asparagus

[Ellenden Farm Shop]

Hi All

I hope everyone had a lovely Easter - special thanks to all those who
supported us by choosing an alternative to lamb!

In addition comments received along the lines of "Absolutley Gorgeous" and
"The best beef we'd ever tasted" are always very rewarding.

As you probably know our lamb is all grass reared, which we believe gives
the meat a sweeter taste and as a result it just wasn't ready for Easter.

David is hoping to have our own Spring Lamb available in the shop for the
weekend of 25TH APRIL.

FARMING NEWS

We are opening the farm on "Open Farm Sunday" again this year which takes
place on Sunday 7th June. It was
a great success last year, 

and we hope to have a repeat performance this year. There will be a
Barbque, tractor and trailer rides, food tastings, sheep shearing demos and
lots more....

 David is hoping the have the combine harvester here and some of the beef
stock - I will keep you up-dated so watch this space.

It doesn't feel like Barbque weather today - I hope it improves for the
weekend!

Kind regards

Sara
