Taste Wiltshire! Discover your local pantry!

Awdry Bailey & Douglas (ABD) was proud to support this local fun filled event which took place on Sunday 14 September 2014 in the village of Urchfont, near Devizes.  As well as ABD there were other local supporters too.

The event was a great success.  There was street food and local produce to be purchased and live music to listen to.  Local highly qualified chef and proprietor of The Bistro Restaurant and Cookery School - Peter Vaughan provided the audience with some great cookery tips and cookery demonstrations using local produce. This was followed by headline act Natalie Coleman - 2013 BBC MasterChef Champion who also demonstrated her “winning” cookery skills whilst talking the audience through her quick and easy recipes.  Natalie has a new book coming out next year called “Winning Recipes for Every Day”.  BBC News Wiltshire was also on hand to interview the stall holders, chefs and visitors about their day and the event which added to the excitement!

Stalls with delicious local produce included homemade breads, mushrooms and fungi, cakes, homemade apple juice, beers, honey, rapeseed oil varieties and MORE! 

The event was organised by Redhone Community Trust who hope to run a similar event next year. Any profits made will go to Wiltshire Air Ambulance.
