The four parishes in the Downland Benefice are joining together to produce a recipe book to raise funds for maintaining the churches in Edburton, Newtimber, Poynings and Pyecombe. The book will feature seasonal recipes, using local produce when possible. We would love to hear from anyone who can help us in any way, such as typing, editing, marketing and organising a book launch. And of course we need lots of recipes to choose from! What is your favourite recipe, using local, seasonal ingredients? Email your recipe to downlandrecipes@icloud.com or drop it into Westend Cottage, The Street, Poynings by 30th June.

Sussex Agricultural History
A talk by Dr. Geoffrey Mead (University of Sussex) to Henfield History Group at 8:00pm on Tuesday 10th May in the Free Church Hall, Coopers Way, Henfield. The Sussex landscape is a complex linkage of natural features and processes — the geology and topography of the county. This has been adapted by man into a human landscape which is largely one of agricultural development. The talk will consider the regional and historical variation in Sussex agriculture.
