The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Can you come to our fête?
We do. Tell us the date, pitch and how food will be paid for.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.

Should I cook it myself?
