Do you make time for breakfast every day, or are you always just a little bit too busy? Maybe you’re not quite sure what to have for breakfast or just don’t like eating alone. Then why not join the Farmers’ Union of Wales Carmarthen team for breakfast?
The first breakfast has been arranged for Thursday January 25, at Llanarthne Hall, SA32 8JD where Emma and Neil Rose of Rhosyn Farm are in charge of breakfast, using their own home-made sausages, bacon, black pudding and fresh eggs straight from the farm and will be cooking a Burns tartan themed breakfast .
The couple take pride in breeding their own stock, outdoor rearing in the most idyllic surroundings in Carmarthenshire and giving their animals the best quality of care and attention during their time on the farm.
Farming pockets of land covering approximately 100 acres, they use both the Gloucester Old Spots and Herdwicks for clearing the rough ground before returning to pasture, which certainly adds to the taste of the meat that Rhosyn produce. That’s something you will be able to judge and of course enjoy for yourselves if you join the breakfast at Llanarthne Hall.
On Friday, January 26, a second breakfast been arranged at Llanewydd Community Hall, where FUW staff and members will be cooking a farmhouse breakfast feast.
The two breakfasts have been organised as part of the FUW’s Farmhouse Breakfast Week campaign (January 22 – January 27), which aims to raise the profile of Welsh produce and get politicians, key stakeholders and the general public to appreciate the important role the food and drink sector plays in their everyday lives.
Nerys Edwards, the FUW’s Carmarthen County Executive Officer Assistant in charge of organising the breakfast functions, said: “Those who are joining us will see the vital part farmers play in maintaining our rural communities, in sustaining a viable and profitable agricultural sector and of course producing excellent food.
“But we want you to be a part of what we do too. So join us for breakfast and share your thoughts and worries about the state of the industry, tell us your stories and help us to understand how we can help each other.
“And really there is no better way to to do it than over good food and a cup of tea. Let’s start our day together and enjoy the quality food we have on offer.”
