Dear Wild Cooks,
When the Harrogate Flower Show comes to town, we at Rudding Park jump to it!
Over the course of the show we had Peter Banks, Managing Director, demonstrating how to make jams, jellies and chutneys, Paul, Sous Chef, paving the way with Yorkshire Game and Autumnal fruits, and myself demonstrating twice the joys of Autumn produce and a three course meal to get you in the Autumn spirit! We had a very floral amount of fun!!
