chocchick Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Just thought I'd pop on with the news that I am getting married (to "OH" ) next year. We have found an organic farm in a pretty location with converted barn licensed for weddings. The caterer they recommend does local organic food and the farm is keen on being green. It has chickens although apparently they were fed doughnuts one week, developed a taste for them and started raiding handbags in subsequent weddings. The people are really nice and were really excited we said yes, partly as we will bring morris dancers. I was slightly that we were taken through a door on the first floor of the venue that opened onto a cow shed (complete with freerange chickens) but the cows were lovely.
