Doug, the Chef at the New Flying
 Horse Pub in Wye, proudly showing off his 'Pub Food of the Year' award from Shepherd Neame.
Ripple Farm vegetables have made their way onto the menu before, and more recently, Penny (who works at Ripple Farm) has been tending the Pub's own vegetable garden.
Part of the Pub's large garden is an authentic recreation of a Chelsea Flower Show gold medal winner - Julian Dowle’s successful design “A Soldier’s Dream of  Blighty”.
The Chelsea Pensioners’ Garden was created for the 2005 Chelsea Flower Show, with input from the Chelsea Pensioners themselves, and includes a Dig for Victory vegetable garden, a pond, a field of poppies and a miniature traditional  English pub.

A huge amount of fun was had on Sunday in the Chelsea Pensioners’ Garden at the New  Flying Horse. Two food sculpture sessions for kids and families were  organised as part of the Wye Food Festival.
Marvellous creations -  including fishes, chickens and racing cars - were carved
out of food.  And all edible afterwards. The food sculpture event was run by
creative artist Maggie Johns, supported by generous funding from the Children's 
Playing Field Charity and Wye PC.
