About our Christmas hog roast in Marsh Green
Winter weather is part of the plan: the roast is under cover; guests need somewhere dry. A hall, office or marquee works well. We are often asked to cater christmas lights switch-ons and year-end thank-yous, with halloumi skewers, apple sauce and roast potatoes.
Near Marsh Green, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Timings are planned around your Christmas party, working back from when you want to eat.
