Christmas Special #1: Cracknell's Farm

Christmas Special #1: Cracknell's Farm

For many people, one of the key parts of the Christmas period is food. Huge roast dinners with all the trimmings, towering plates of mince pies, and abundant cheese boards all feature heavily in my 32 years of Christmas memories, not to mention the days upon days of preparation leading up to the event. With my current locavore focus, I suggested that as part of my present to my parents this year, I’d source the ingredients from local farms. I don't eat a lot of meat, so it's important to me to know where the meat I eat is from, and how it was raised. With this in mind, I set about tracking down exactly where my duck was coming from.
