Paolo Arrigo- Italy from Seed to Plate

Fairlight Hall’s Talks and Workshops 2017 Season continues on Saturday 24th June with ‘Italy from Seed to Plate’.
This entertaining talk by Paolo Arrigo of Franchi Seeds is for gardeners, foodies and Italophiles alike and covers the story of vegetables from Roman times to the present day followed by a delicious lunch of wood fired pizza made with seasonal organic vegetables from the Walled Garden.
Paolo Arrigo is passionate about food. Born and brought up in London, he is still very much an Italian at heart and was taught from an early age how to pick mushrooms, grow and cook vegetables and shout loudly when watching football. His whole life has revolved around food in one way or another and his company, Seeds of Italy, is an extension of that passion.
Tickets are £35.00, to include lunch, available from the Fairlight Hall Website.
Other highlights in the upcoming season include Fergus Garrett- ‘Designing with plants at Great Dixter’,Hattie Ellis and Jamie Wickens- ‘Butcher’s Cuts and Cook’s Choices’ and two workshops with Head Gardener Whitney Hedges- ‘Hand Tied Bouquets’ in August and the ever popular ‘Christmas Wreath Making’ in November.
