Join us for the Taste East Devon Festival

East Devon’s renowned producers, chefs, restaurants and venues have joined forces to present Taste East Devon Festival. A series of events will be taking place across our beautiful coast and country from the 3rd - 18th September, 2022.

We’re thrilled to be involved in the Taste East Devon Festival again this year and as part of the programme, we are hosting two exclusive River Cottage events. To kick things off, our Head Chef Steven Kiernan will also be speaking and demoing at the first event on the calendar – the Ottery St Mary Food and Families Festival on the 3rd September.

“It is important that we celebrate what we have. We have this landscape - I don’t know the exact term, but I call it Dingly-Dell. Up-hill-and-down-dale... It lends itself to small-scale mixed farming. People doing bits and pieces. And because farms have tended to be small there’s been that entrepreneurial spirit of adding value to products with a bit of artisan craftsmanship thrown in. Little dairies with their own cheeses - small farms making their own cider on the side.” - Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall
