Andrew Mercer, chief exec of
the East
of England Agricultural Society said: "We were
delighted by the number of people who supported us in this
venture, both by helping us and by coming to eat on the day.
There was a marvellous atmosphere and the food was superb."
All the food consumed on the East of
England Showground is sourced under the Society's Food
Direct from the Farm scheme, which means it is all
sourced from local farmers and producers, ensuring the best
quality, local food, at all times.
The record-breaking lunch was no exception, and
all the Quality Standard Beef was donated by local farmers
and EBLEX.
Likewise, all the potatoes, vegetables and
Yorkshire puddings were donated by farmer members and showground's
suppliers.
