Foodies Flock to Ludlow Food Festival




This year’s Ludlow Food Festival was the 15th and the most popular, as record numbers made their pilgrimage to Foodie Heaven.

Summer finally arrived in the Marches and the sun shone on three days of demonstrations, talks, trails and tasting, of course. 21,000 people from near and far sampled the quality and variety of food and drink lovingly created by Marches producers.

Ludlow Food Festival
Visitors could sample and vote for their favourite sausage, bread or ale, try out the UKs first potato vodka or go nuts for smoked, well, nuts.

Marches.TV was there to capture the buzz, talk to demonstrators, producers, organisers and visitors and perhaps sample some of the fine fayre for ourselves.
