Take a look at the Guardians reviews of these Peak District delights
The shock at the extent of how little we know about what goes into our food and where its come from has become more apparent as the horsemeat scandal continues to unfold
The UK have some of the strictest welfare and movements regulations in the world offering complete traceability from farm to fork, so why has it taken us so long to realise that foreign imports are destroying UK farmers as they can’t compete on price………and now we see why.
Think before buying at the supermarkets, absolutely everyway possible support your local farmers, butchers and processors they can probably even tell you the farm where the animals originated
Lets hope the negatives that have emerged from this scandal returns GREAT BRITISH PEOPLE back to GREAT BRITISH PRODUCE, A pride in their local producers, a sense of community building new relationships with local shops, support for their local economies during the downturn and that their local high street is actually as competitive if not more so than the supermarkets.

Come to Bakewell for the very first Baking Festival with lots to see and do for all ages, it looks to be a fantastic celebration of home baking and vintage delights.
Not just a trade show – although many exhibitors and traders will be here to demonstrate products and inspire those who like us, love baking – this is very much a festival celebrating the quirky world of baking.
Vintage market stalls, vintage bus rides and shops dressed up for the occasion all add up to the feel of one long retro tea party.
We’ve commissioned two fun performances from the Storybag Theatre company The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, aimed at children and their grown-ups and a demonstration of how to make a Bakewell pudding by ‘ Fanny and Johnny Craddock’.
The event is taking place the weekend of 8th and 9th June
Visit the website for further details, we hope to see you there
