Here are some pictures and customer comments from the event:
"I think Jon Thorner's farm shops are exceptional, first class. The staff are very helpful and obliging. The butchers know how to cook different meat, I always get good advice."
C. Lockey, Shepton Mallet
"I visit Jon Thorner's farm shops regularly, I never go anywhere else! I love the Jon Thorner's Pork, Apple and Stilton Sausages."
R. Powell, Chewton Mendip
"We visit once a week and I can honestly say we haven't bought any meat anywhere else for at least 4 or 5 years."
Mr. & Mrs. England, Wells
The butchers put on a fantastic meat display and were providing meat cutting demonstrations throughout the evening.
"The Blackcurrent & Clotted Cream Ice Cream is amazing, you could get very fat here!"
Farrell, Shepton Mallet
"I think it is a great idea in a recession to buy locally sourced food. More businesses should do it. Quality not quantity."
C. Ashington, Long Sutton
