Being invited to be part of the Hampshire Food Festival has given me lots of pleasure. Twenty eight years ago I bought a weekend house in Froxfield which I used as a base at the weekends to discover this beautiful county. From the lanes covered in wild garlic and the surrounding woods full of wild mushrooms in season to the discovery of wild greens continued in the hedgerows and wonderful carpets of snowdrops, daffodils and bluebells.
Antonio Carlucc io
This all satisfied my desire for wild food but it is the local produce of this blessed county that gives me a tantalising choice for my cooking. The Hampshire Food Festival shows that zero mileage is possible when sourcing ingredients. All the farmers markets and pick–your–own farms show that you can prepare wonderful meals from an array of local fish, meat, vegetables and fruit. The educational touch is essential to encourage people to discover what is possible. The Hampshire Food Festival is a wonderful opportunity for parents to open their children’s eyes to food and farming and explain the mystery of growing and raising good and wholesome food. Hampshire boasts numerous dedicated food and drink producers and retailers passionate about bringing the best quality ingredients to our tables. Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to get involved in a fantastic celebration of local food and produce. F O R I look forward to meeting many of you, I will be at events including the opening of the Bnew R E Afarm T H Tshop A K I NatG the Leckford Estate (see page 51).

What is Hampshire Fare? Bringing you the best of local Hampshire Fare has been working with local farmers and producers across Hampshire for more than twenty years. Passionate about the benefits of buying locally we are committed to supporting and promoting the unique and talented local produce and craft community.
We can picture the day when you will find tasty local produce in the cupboards of every household in the county. We see people travelling from other counties specifically to taste Hampshire produce. We envisage long queues at local farm shops and butchers as people eagerly stock up on quality local meat.
Our county boasts a thriving local food culture with award-winning cheeses, meat, vegetables, wine, beer and much more lovingly produced in our beautiful countryside. Top chefs are enticed to the area by the quality and abundance of local ingredients giving Hampshire some of the best pubs, restaurants and hotels in the country.
It is this vision and our belief that local is best which drives us to get people trying and buying local produce. So go to our website to find out more about how to buy and taste local food and drink. Come along to the many events that make up the Hampshire Food Festival 2013 and find out more about what’s on offer in your local area.
We want to help you to discover more about Hampshire’s exceptional food, drink and craft and encourage you to try some of the outstanding produce our county has to offer.
We are a not-for-profit community interest organisation and our work is only made possible by the ongoing support of our corporate partners and corporate friends.

With the end of term close, it is time for school leavers to think of their next steps. The Old Rectory Cookery School have two invaluable courses either as preparation for gap year work or practical cookery skills for independent living.
At the end of the course students will have a good range of culinary skills and confidence to tackle any recipe. The Student Survival Course is a really useful and practical course for anyone leaving home for the first time or going off to university.
The Essential Course is for anyone who wants to gain the necessary skills to get a job in their gap year, either cooking in a ski chalet or working on a yacht.
This four day course runs from 10.30am until 3pm each day. Core recipes are taught and with a little easy adaptation will provide a range of different dishes. Students will be given tips on stocking the store cupboard, prudent shopping tips together with kitchen hygiene. After four days they will be prepared for independent living and able to eat well and stay healthy.
This intensive two week course runs from 10am-3.30pm each day and covers all the key skills for competent cookery. Starting with basic knife skills and essential kitchen techniques, students will quickly progress from simple dishes to a whole range of more complex recipes.
