MEETING THE “MAKERS”

We’ve had quite a few new faces join us on here recently, so we thought we’d reintroduce the VERY small team behind The Feather Trail.

And when we say small, we mean it.

These days, that’s exactly how we like things. Hands-on, personal and familiar.

There isn’t a huge team hidden behind the scenes. The people cooking your brunch, baking the cakes, making your coffee, answering your messages, choosing the suppliers, planting the flowers and serving your table are, for the most part, the same people.

Us.

Plus one largely unproductive, four-legged member of management. 🐾

It’s become a big part of what makes the FTC, well… the FTC.

So whether you’ve followed us from the beginning, found us on a trip to Helmsley or have only just stumbled across our little corner of Instagram…

Hello. We’re James, Danii & Dougie.

If you’ve been here, you’ve probably met us.

If you haven’t, come and say hello. 💛

Did you know we’re currently using our own homegrown produce in dishes at The FTC?

These tomatoes and cucumbers have travelled only a few steps from our garden to the kitchen. Picked fresh, brought straight in and worked into our dishes.

You quite literally couldn’t get much fresher than that. ❤️

☑️Grown by us.

All the touches of yellow bringing the sunshine!

Packed & ready to go! 🎂

Rich, indulgent, and just the right side of irresistible 🍫

Layers of deep, velvety chocolate sponge, generously smothered in silky ganache… the kind of cake that steals the show and disappears slice by slice.
