Allotment Day with Chris


Chris Brack is a member of Slowfood who is organising a great event at his allotment on Hydro Farm in Tower (proper directions will be given at booking). The owner of the Hydro Farm has divided part of her farm into allotments and the holders have grown to a tight group of gardeners with swap days, open days etc.

Slowfood Cork City is supporting this initiative of Chris and we are excited about this opportunity for our members to go and see how 'easy' it is to grow your own. Chris and the other allotment holders will be at hand to show you around and answer any question you might have.

A big feast will be served - prepared and cooked by Chris himself using produce from the allotment. Local producers are supporting the event such as O'Flynn Brothers in Cork sponsoring a piglet. Chris is also the winner of this year's Grow.Bake.Cook Competition and I am sure we haven't seen the last of it.

Please note that booking is essential - simply email Caz at ccslowfood@gmail.com and state if you are a Slowfood member (reduced prices available for SF members).
