On Wednesday the pigs and four sheep, one hogget and three mutton, went off to the butchers. It was an early start but pretty uneventful really as it all went fine.
Frosty supplies of Elderflower cordial - 30th April 2010
Yesterday the meat came back, and it was a lot of meat. Rhys and mother did the cutting with some friends which in itself took a large part of the day to do. Then it was time to try to fit it all into the freezers.
There is now most of an upright freezer, half a small chest freezer and a large chest freezer full. The sorting did mean we found some interesting things hidden away, including lots of cows milk from when Primrose was in full milk, a few different kinds of fruit and two liters of Elder flower cordial.

I can’t even visualise that much meat!!
I’m always finding interesting things at the bottom of my freezer, but I think yours are far more interesting. Mine are usually stale bread for breadcrumbs and bacon fat for flavouring.
Yum! Elderflower cordial! Will definately need to make some of that this year!
