An Evening of Cheese

Friday 21 June 2013, 7pm to 10.30pm

Join us for an evening with Juliet Harbutt, as she introduces her selection of 14 cheeses from our award winning counter, with bread from Lovingly Artisan, and salad leaves from Growing Well.

Juliet is one of the world’s leading authorities on cheese. Author of 11 cheese tomes and founder of the British Cheese Awards and Great British Cheese Festival, Juliet will be helping our guests to squish, sniff, munch and slurp their way through 14 of our 72 cheeses and matching wines.

Describing herself as a “very greedy cheese person who created the British Cheese Awards so I would never run out of cheese”, cheese expert Juliet Harbutt grew up in New Zealand. She has lived in the UK for more than 30 years and co-founded Jeroboams cheese-monger in London.

The British Cheese Awards highly recommended our great selection of British cheeses. Rind washed to nettle wrapped, muslin bound to hard pressed, we run the gamut of textures, tastes and smells. Pride of place goes to three cheeses made from milk from our herd: Kendal Creamy (also a Cumbria Life taste champion winner), Kendal Crumbly and Kendal Crumbly with Red Onion.

Tickets are available from the Farm Shop, £35pp (or £30pp for groups of four). Places are limited

Sloe Motion tasting

Friday 28th June 2013, 10.00am to 4.00pm

Join us in the farm shop for a SLOEMOTION tasting. Their latest product, No. 7 is a twist on the traditional fruit or summer cup. It has been created to be mixed with lemonade, fruit and ice for summer parties or barbeques.

A Gin-spirited blend of hedgerow, orchard and field fruits together with hedgerow blossom and herbs, it's a product of the British countryside and a foragers (liquid) feast.

You're sure to enjoy its delicious smooth fruity taste with floral and citrus hints and a strong dry finish.
