We are a group of micro farmers who welcome anyone who keeps animals or grows vegetables and fruit, or loves cooking! Who would like to come along to our meetings or events and share their experiences with others. You don't need to have lots of animals to be a "smallholder." Many people who grow vegetables, have some bees or maybe a couple of backyard chickens come along and enjoy the meetings and events as well.

Pour into two 2lb loaf tins and bake in the oven gas mark 3 or 4

Great eaten straight away or if it’s left in an airtight box for a couple of days it goes sticky. Try it with butter on.
Enjoy.
