The picnic season is with us and we thought you may be interested to hear some more about the food you're eating. From seasonable eats to fresh buffalo it's all covered.

The Real Food Festival next weekend (7th-10th May 2010) is the most exciting foodie event of the year and one you won’t want to miss!

Bringing together top chefs such as Raymond Blanc, Giorgio Locatelli, Willie Harcourt-Cooze, Thomasina Miers and Oliver Rowe and over 400 of some of the best food and drink producers you will find anywhere, this is food and drink heaven. With Riverford Organic bringing their award-winning Field Kitchen restaurant and our own Mad Hatters Tea Party, with chef demos, livestock including a water buffalo from Laverstoke Park, milking and butter-making demos, tastings, grow your own and live music, this is a fantastic day out for all the family.
