What’s growing, cooking & happening this season
There’s always plenty going on across THE PIGs. Things growing in the Kitchen Garden, new dishes coming out of the kitchen and good people doing good things nearby.
Have a look around for seasonal recipes, stories from our teams, the local suppliers we work with and plenty from behind the scenes.
What’s Growing in Autumn
Autumn is one of our favourite times in the Kitchen Garden. The summer crops are making way for the hearty stuff – think squash, beetroot, kale, chard, leeks and plenty of apples, pears and late-season berries.
There’s still plenty to pick, cook and preserve, with our kitchen teams making the most of whatever the gardens are giving us. From warming soups and slow-cooked suppers to pickles, chutneys and the odd bit of baking, autumn is all about putting good things to use.

From the Kitchen Garden to the Plate
What’s growing in the Kitchen Garden doesn’t stay there for long. Autumn’s squashes, roots, orchard fruit and late-season leaves make their way straight into the kitchens, alongside the best of what our local growers, farmers and suppliers have to offer.
On the 25 Mile Menu right now, that might mean venison carpaccio with pickled walnut and Old Winchester, caramelised onion and smoked garlic soup, or a proper apple and sultana crumble with a generous helping of custard. And with a few old PIG favourites making a comeback for our 15th birthday, there’s plenty of good stuff to tuck into.
It’s the same story across THE PIGs – the gardeners grow, the chefs cook, and the seasons decide what’s for dinner.
