Dorset Food & Venison Festival
Saturday 29th April will see the Dorset Food and Venison Festival taking place from 10am-4pm at Post Green in Lytchett Minster, BH16 6AP.
Dorset watchers will be well aware of the marvellous range of food produce originating in the county and may well know of the exciting food events which brighten our summers, but why a Venison Festival?
Well, deer in the landscape are delightful creatures and valuable parts of our ecosystem, but it turns out that it is possible to have too much of a good thing, and deer numbers in Purbeck have got so big that they are damaging farming and woodlands as well as the wild areas and cause traffic accidents. This means that the deer numbers have to be managed, and that means that venison will be produced.
So it’s local, healthy (venison is very low in fat) and tastes good. We thought that this was worth celebrating, and on 29th April we will be giving people the opportunity to discover how good it is and how well it goes with our other excellent Dorset foodstuffs.
Local chefs will be providing food demonstrations throughout the day, including Sarah Ali Choudhury who featured on Channel 4’s My Kitchen Rules,
Mark Harstone from La Fosse Restaurant, The Salt Pig of Wareham and Owen Senior of Land & Wave, who will also be showing off their skills.
The event is being supported by Dorset Food & Drink, Lewis Dean Estate Agents of Upton and Lytchett Minster & Upton Beacon Association.
There will also be children’s activities, live music and entertainment throughout the day, including falconry displays, Morris dancing and local bands, plus many Dorset traders selling their hot and cold food produce, cider and much more!
Free parking. Dogs Allowed. Entry £3, under 12s are free.
