Neil's Award-Winning Chutneys & Preserves

12/01/2026

What a tradition!

🌾 Happy Plough Monday! 🚜
Did you know the first Monday after Twelfth Night marks the return of the plough to the fields. A time-honoured hearty nod to tradition.🍴🌾🌱

We're celebrating the best way we know how, with a Ploughman’s lunch or supper. The ultimate winter comfort plate.

🧀 Crumbly Dorset Blue Vinny
🥒 Tangy pickles From Dorset With Love chutney
🍞 Crusty bread from Oxfords Bakery
with Craig's Farm Dairy butter🧈
🧀 Creamy Blyton or Gouda from The Book And Bucket Cheese Company
🍏 Crisp local apple & pears from Elwell Fruit Farm 🍐
🥩 Maybe a slice of ham or pork pie if you're feeling indulgent - South Paddocks 🐖
🥚Not traditional - but oh my... Neil's Award-Winning Chutneys & Preserves pickled eggs are just crummy!

And if you fancy something sweet after all that...it's gotta be a Bee’s Knees Bakes Portland Dough Bun! 😋

That perfect bite of sharp cheese, sweet pickle, and bread? Unbeatable. Especially when it’s all local and 🍴💚🌱

Whether you’re tucking in at your favourite pub, making your own version at home, or just dreaming of your next one.
Raise a mug of Clipper tea, a pint of
Dorset Nectar Cider or a sparkling Curious Kombucha to the new agricultural year! 🚜🌱

What are your must-haves for a Ploughman’s?
