Kendal’s award-winning farmers market will host the final food school of 2025 this week.
It will be held on Friday, October 10 and will feature three sessions at 11am, noon, and 1pm.
At 11am, Lisa Smith shares the story of Ginger Bakers’ growth and its collaborations with community projects such as Growing Well, Waste into Wellbeing, and Right to Work.
At noon, Michael Dunne, of Bean & Dunne, will prove that great coffee doesn’t need expensive equipment. Watch him roast coffee beans with nothing more than a camping hob and frying pan – and discover how simplicity can bring out incredible flavour.
At 1pm, Martin Frickel takes you through his culinary journey from fine dining to fabulous cakes, sharing insights into his craft – with the promise of some irresistible samples.
Throughout the day, marketgoers can discover more about the produce they love, meet the passionate people behind the stalls, and pick up insider tips on how to make the most of fresh, local ingredients.
Running annually from April to October, Kendal Farmers Market Food School transforms the market into a hub of learning and inspiration on the second Friday of each month.
