Life is a miracle… … and we would do well to Life is a miracle…

… and we would do well to remember that!

Our next instalment of Worton nights has been announced: Food, Farming and The Great Rethink with Colin Tudge.

A long time friend of the farm, author, journalist and co-founder of the Oxford Real Farming Conference.  Colin, one of the key figures in the Agro-ecological farming movement in the UK, is an informed, perceptive and entertaining speaker and we are looking forward to a fascinating evening as he talks to the subject.

Our incredible forager has found a dramatically large, tender and delicious chicken of the woods! 

More often found later in the summer, they do occasionally grow from early May onwards. 

Individual “brackets” will be on sale in the shop and in the restaurant where we will serve it braised in butter, cream and paprika on sourdough toast 🤤

An exciting new crop this weekend - Calcots! Love An exciting new crop this weekend - Calcots!

Loved by the Catalunians, these wonderful Spring vegetable are now ready to pick at the farm 🪴 

We are serving them in the restaurant chat-grilled and piping hot with a luscious Romesco sauce 🤤 

Taste-wise they are a cross between a Spring Onion and a leek, the unusual veg are grown by replanting last years old onions. The new shoots grow direct from the old onion and all we do is mound up the mulch to blanch the first few inches of stem.

A quick clean and then onto the grill to char on the outside and almost steam the interior - the result a delicious sweet mess to be eaten with Romesco sauce!

What are you having?
New life is all around us 🌱 Of course it's har New life is all around us 🌱

Of course it's hard to remember on the cold, grey damp days, but Spring is already upon us - across the farm signs of life are everywhere 💚

Our wondrous Mirabelles are in full blossom - always the first ghostly white in the hedgerows.  The hedgerows themselves - bald and lank all winter after they were "layered" in the Autumn - are coming back to life and will soon be full of leaves and birds and blossoms. The Hawthorn buds are bursting open - tiny green leaves unfurling - did you know that are delicious?  You have to eat the just opened leaves before they harden off.

In the Seed House, thousands of seedlings are on the move. Thrusting towards the weak spring sun and growing each day - the first have already been planted out in the glasshouses. Kohl Rabi and Caraflex cabbage are in the ground and hundreds more will follow - new trays of seeds are planted every day.

Two things to draw to your attention this week: firstly, we have a great offer of £15 for 6 bottles on our delicious Apple Juice.  These are the last bottles from the previous years juice and we want to clear the shelves so that we can take delivery of the new juice from last years bumper harvest! 

Secondly, we have acceded to your requests and are open for dinner this Saturday evening - two sittings as normal at 6pm and 8pm - you can book the tables online or give us a call.  We will be serving a full menu and you can book a table by clicking the button below as normal.
