Despite the very blustery weather, lots of people came to visit the small, picturesque Shropshire town of Ludlow for the
food festival last weekend. We were positioned in The Fringe section, being from Yorkshire, where we were also joined by the day-long cooking of 6,500 fine
Legges of Bromyard's sausages on the groovy new
Big Green Egg barbecues.

The rain and winds were occasionally bracing, while exhibitors and visitors alike enjoyed sharing their passions for food. I was lucky enough to be next to the
Cheshire Cheese Company, so got to taste their delicious Vintage Cheddar and Smoked Cheese which I can thoroughly recommend.
As soon as I was home, I tried the Vintage Cheddar with a delicious
Lewis & Cooper Plum Pudding: great combination! Also in the same area at Ludlow was the very fine
Chilton Damson Gin producer who make ideally sized 100ml bottles- great for Christmas!
I did manage to get a few minutes off to see the fabulous set up at the castle, the grounds of which were buzzing with activity and demonstrations. This was my first ever visit to Ludlow and I am so impressed to see such a well-loved little town thriving with small food businesses and able to muster such a huge number of volunteers to help over the festival weekend. Hopefully, we will be there again next year!
