Shrewsbury Farmers market

In the ongoing campaign to sell organic meat to the good burgers of shropshire we attended Shrewsbury Farmers Market. It was not the best day we have ever had and in because of the high stall fee we came away with no profit. As you can see it rained all morning and was cold which kept the crowds away. We will have to see if we do it again, it fits well with other markets but at over £70 the stall fees are prohibitive.

Next week we have the regular produce market in Ludlow, so the animal we had slaughtered for this market will be available for Ludlow.

There is a definite interest in Mutton recently both from young people trying something new and for older people who remember eating it when they were young. It's important that the animals we use for mutton are of high quality and are not too old. This maintains the quality of the meat and will hopefully sustain demand.
