Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
- Think about children’s portions
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.

What happens on the day
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. At midsummer, it is light in Chalkshire until about 9:25pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
