SOLD OUT!
Join the team at River Cottage HQ for a six course feast celebrating the fantastic produce and ingredients that East Devon has to offer, cooked by their chefs Gelf Alderson and Gill Meller, who between them have run the River Cottage kitchen and collaborated on their menus for almost 20 years. Their inspirational cooking reflects the passion, knowledge and commitment to provenance that fires up the whole River Cottage team and makes them so excited to work with the wonderful farmers and producers that surround us.
During the evening, Gill and Gelf will explain their SLOW ethos of ingredients that are Seasonal, Local, Organic and Wild: plants, meat and fish that have been foraged, grown, raised and caught either on the farm, or by nearby farmers, growers and artisans who share the same passion for the finest provenance.
Two of these organic growers, Trill Farm and Haye Farm, are their neighbours and will be in the room on the evening to talk with Gill and Gelf about growing vegetables and raising the very best organic meat. Their fish supplier, Lyme Bay Fish Shack owners Nigel and Corrine, will be on hand to discuss sustainable fishing and our charcuterie supplier and course tutor Steve from Good Game in Topsham will be sharing his inspirational knowledge.
They source their drinks as carefully as their food, with their own River Cottage range of organic ciders, beers and kombuchas, and a carefully curated wine list of organic and biodynamic wines. If you would like River Cottage to pair your drinks for each of the courses let them know on the night and you will be served a different drink for every course, each chosen to perfectly compliment the dishes.
They are confident you will leave full of delicious food, happy memories and, they hope, some garden and kitchen inspiration too!
