Fourth generation farmers, Packington Free Range (www.packingtonfreerange.co.uk/ ) will be joining forces with Seasoned; (www.seasonedcourses.com/) an establishm ent based in a beautiful courtyard property at Catton Hall. The school was opene d in 2010 by Clare Tetley, with the aim of providing fun food education and cook ery skills to people of all levels and abilities. Our cookery courses aim to inspire and educate anyone with a genuine interest in food. We enjoy working with and promoting the produce of local farmers in this a rea, and although in the neighbouring county of Staffordshire, Packington Free R ange is based within 10 minutes drive of the cookery school. Packingtons animals a re reared in a natural and stress-free environment and therefore the meat they p roduce is of an excellent quality.
