High Weald Dairy
Nearly 50 CPRE members enjoyed a very informative visit to the High Weald Dairy at Horsted Keynes this month. It was good to be able to witness their successes over the past 10 years - you couldn't help noticing their many certificates and awards adorning the walls. To be able to taste locally hand - crated food was very satisfying and for those members who were unable to attend this event you could try their cheeses by visiting the many farm shops, delis and farmers' markets throughout Sussex. They also sell through Waitrose and the Taste the Difference range in Sainsbury's.
Newhaven energy recovery facility visits
Due to popular demand I arranged four visits to this facility in May. There were many other members who were disappointed because all tours were fully booked. Therefore I will be organising some more visits next year so watch this space!
CPRE Sussex Visit to Knepp Castle Estate
July 2012
A tractor-trailer ride through Sir Charles Burrell’s estate near Horsham gave our group a fascinating insight into how landowners in England are adapting their farming practices to meet sustainable environmental objectives.
