Sussex Foodie News, May 2012 |
|
Dear Sussex Foodies,
Herb gardens are at last bearing fruit - a sure sign of spring - and although a bit sodden, orchards are definitely looking more promising this year. The blossom is all being knocked off by the rain, but it started out much more beautiful than last year, so I'm expectant of good fruit in 2012! I don't know if you have noticed it too, but Sussex farmers seem to be growing a lot more rape seed this year and it's quickly and dramatically become a spectacular florescent yellow part of the landscape - superb!
Meantime, the Sussex Food & Drink Awards 2011/12 need your help in nominating the best local food producers, farmers and outlets - and the best young chefs in Sussex - last chance now, so please go to www.sussexfoodawards.biz
