Happy New Year! It’s already been a very busy start to 2017 as we just completed a long and detailed funding application form. It kept us awake at night and although there was always a ton of other jobs to do, we stayed focused, got it done and sent it in 5 minutes before the deadline! The project is to convert the old shippon (or milking parlour) into a production kitchen and multi-purpose room. This is were we can vac pack meat, make soap, host events and run workshops. With the uncertainty of farm subsidies looming, we have to have alternative or additional income sources and the developing of this new space is part of our future proofing plan. It’s really exciting so fingers crossed!
