July Markets at Haslemere and Milford

Summer is well and truly upon us, and we have been blessed with some fabulous days, although they did come quite quickly and without much warning. Those of us with livestock and plants have to be extra vigilant, ensuring that we keep waters topped up and growth at an optimum.

All of our pigs are certainly enjoying the deepest, muddiest wallows they possibly can. Our first hay run is complete and in the barn, dirty work made a bit better with Homegrown soap!

By the end of the month, the rams will be in with the ewes for our early lambers, and we should have another couple of Mangalitza litters on the ground. We are also taking suggestions for summer sausage flavours, so please send your ideas for shortlisting.

We have been eating outside on the farm for the past few weeks now and have certainly enjoyed being a little bit more creative with what we put on the table, with a more Mediterranean feel to our dinners. This week, we are looking forward to pesto on haddock with seasonal veg and the lovely trout gravlax on Swedish rye bread, all from our fellow producers.

If you make any amazing creations, please don’t hesitate to share images and tag us on social media. Whether it is something for dinner, sausage rolls or olives for a packed lunch, an impromptu barbecue or enjoying a refreshing drink, there is something for everybody at Haselmere and Milford.

Thank you for your support, and enjoy July!
