Ludlow Slow Food

Well its not often you get something for nothing-but today we had a full english breakfast free of charge!
It was organised by the local group of Slow Food-its aims are
protecting agriculture and food biodiversity,developing food and taste education,connecting producers and consumers and developing networks. for more information you can see their website
www.slowfoodludlow.org.uk


All of the food was locally sourced-and delicious and they catered for 100 people-all free of charge to promote the worthy cause--

the strawberry and vanilla muesli was from The Ludlow Nut Company
milk was from Mawley town Farm, Cleobury Mortimer,
Bread made with flour from Bacheldre Watermill, Powys-Ludlow Food Centre

then we had beautiful
free range bacon from Tudges Butchers, Orleton, Ludlow,
Free range pork sausages from DW Walls and Sons, Ludlow,
Free Range eggs from Country Flavours, Madely, Herefordshire
Handmade black pudding from the Ludlow Food centre
home made sauces-including damson ketchup which was beautiful came from
Ludlow Jam Pan

then to follow we had some toast and a range of jams including
lemon curd,raspberry jam, lime marmalade,grapefruit and cranberry marmalade.

Everyone enjoyed it and it has certainly encouraged us to go and take a look at the Ludlow Food Centre, just out of the town--its been open a while now but we haven't made a visit there yet--we will be dropping in there this week--I must get some of the damson ketchup among other things--I don't mind paying a bit extra for quality!
