Mary Wilkins and Lou Renwick took cooking equipment and ingredients along to Cambo Village Hall, Northumberland to entertain the local W.I. Group in October 2016. Lou gave a talk on the history of Cragend Farm and the renovations that are on going. The talk included viewing examples of items found on the farm during the renovations, including a cannon ball, a hedge splitter and old milk bottles. Meanwhile Mary cooked Leek Soup as a canape with crispy parma ham, palmiers and sushi, explaining how a little prepartion before a party, especially at Christmas time can make the finishing touches to the canapes so much easier on the night. A delicious array of canapes were on show as a prelude to the Cookery Lunch Demonstrations at Cragend on offer for Birthdays, Anniversaries or just a treat lunch by contacting www.marywilkinscookery.co.uk to book. Cragend Farm is available for use as a venue and visitor days to explore the farm can be arrange by appointment with Lou Renwick.
