Society Summer visit to De-Kenton Longhorns

08/07/2014


The Society's summer visit was to David & Sharon McVeigh and their family.

The Society's summer visit was by kind invitation of David and Sharon McVeigh and their family to visit their home Kenton Hall and the De-Kenton herd of Longhorns alongside the other enterprises that are run from the farm.

The day started sampling a Longhorn burger from the brand new catering trailer the McVeighs had just purchased and were using for the first time that day at the Snape Maltings Farmers Market.

We then went back to the farm for a cookery demonstration using more obscure cuts and offal from homebred Longhorn cattle and then we toured the farm to see the glamping site, the wedding marquee, the cattle accommodation and David's engineering workshops and farm.  We then saw the Longhorn cattle before being treated to a supper of Longhorn beef and produce from the garden.
