<strong>Whitbourne</strong> farmers serve up a treat<br />
<strong>Whitbourne</strong>’s annual Farmers’ Breakfast went with<br />
a swing at the beginning <strong>of</strong> February, as 120 people<br />
came to <strong>Whitbourne</strong> village hall for the now-familiar<br />
spread <strong>of</strong> stewed fruit, yoghurt, muesli, a fabulous<br />
fry-up and toast, with endless tea or c<strong>of</strong>fee.<br />
Raising money for Cancer Research, the event<br />
raised £766, and gave everyone the chance to come<br />
out <strong>of</strong> winter hibernation. All the produce used<br />
comes from local sources and was served by some<br />
<strong>of</strong> the people who produce it.<br />
Father David and the catering team slaved over hot<br />
stoves or hot washing up bowls, while waitresses<br />
Alice Holborow and Sally Evans were kept busy all<br />
morning as people were, as ever, reluctant to leave<br />
even after they had eaten their fill.<br />
Ge<strong>of</strong>f Holborow, one <strong>of</strong> the organisers, said: “We<br />
would like to thank David and the catering team, all<br />
the people who donated produce, all those who<br />
helped out on the day, and, <strong>of</strong> course, everyone<br />
who came along for breakfast. I think it went well<br />
and everyone seemed to have a good time.”<br />
