During these months, all our restaurants benefit from an abundance of home-grown produce from Our Farm, just a mile away from Cartmel. Achieving this requires year-round planning, with all our head chefs across the UK involved, ensuring we can offer you the very best of the season.
While it hasn't been the easiest summer so far—yes, we do tend to blame the weather as Brits often do—we are seeing some real silver linings from sweet and juicy berries in our fruit cages (harvested by all the teams last week) to cucumbers and Red Barron onions being particularly fantastic. And, Our Farm head chef, Liam has used the time to make even more preserves for you.
We also resumed our 'A Day at Our Farm' experience, which received a glowing review from Niki Blasina in the Financial Times. Find the last few remaining tickets here.
With the appointment of Mark McCabe, our new Henrock head chef, we've started growing exotic plants such as wasabi, several varieties of peppers, and lemongrass, all inspired by Simon's trips to his restaurants in Hong Kong, Malta, and Thailand. We've also set up a mini kitchen garden just outside the kitchen at Linthwaite House.
Each season brings new opportunities, so keep an eye out for further updates on biodiversity projects, bird spotting, our efforts towards zero waste, and natural fertilisers.
