TO EAT
Delicious Egyptian street food from the amazing Nesrin; part of the talented home cook community ‘All about the cooks’ which showcases independent cooks from Bristol and Bath. Check out her page on their site here.
Plus, local sweet treat legend Heather of ‘Heathers Divine Delights’ from Nailsea will also be on hand to tend to any sweet teeth…
Flower barn
As well as taking home your own nature crafts and hand picked flowers, our flower barn will be open selling produce pulled straight from our farm – plus a selection of our favourite local independent makers and producers…
Some exciting new products include Uncle Pauls Chilli Charity sauce, preserves, locally crafted gifts and cards…
Plus delicious daily essentials like our fresh Bruton Dairy milk – but not forgetting the treats, we have Chew Moo’s Ice Cream to cool down after a spot of gardening!
While you browse the Flower Barn produce, we have another special treat …
Artist Anna Kelson exhibits a selection of her beautiful and calming paintings. Kelson on her process and inspiration;
‘Most of my works are based on landscapes in an impressionistic rather than representational way. I am interested in the sky, sea and shoreline and the colours where they meet.‘
Find out more about Kelson and her work here. Catch the show now, or over the bank holiday weekend.
Watch this space as we update with more to do, drink and eat!
