What's on in Millbeck Stock

Cumbria, England

Millbeck Stock sits quietly in Cumbria with a charm that makes you want to slow right down. The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction has been welcoming visitors for years, proving that a little bit of magic never goes out of fashion. It is rare to find a place where the stories come alive without needing a loudspeaker to carry the news. Near Here keeps track of what is on offer so you do not have to wander the hills looking for a gig or a good meal. Whether you are feeling peckish or just want to see something new, we know exactly where to go next door. We make sure the local scene stays interesting without needing to shout about it from the rooftops.

Exploring Nature's Larder with Jim Parums

Join Jim as he shares his love of sustainable foraging, explains why he believes it’s a healthier and tastier way to eat, provides hints and tips for first-time foragers…and possibly shares a few seasonal treats with us too! Jim is founder and chief forager of Forage Box, who believe that wild and foraged food is tastier, healthier and better for the planet than food bought in the supermarket. Plus, time spent foraging is great for your mental and physical health… and it’s good fun too! Their mission is to reconnect people with nature through what they eat. Forage Box’s motto: Always Wild, Always Sustainable, Always Delicious is something they stand by and they want foraging to be recognised as a better way of sourcing our food. 60 mins presentation plus Q&A Expect samples and species focus for Spring £10.00 per person (If £10 is a stretch, use promo code WIW25 for a free/reduced ticket.) All money raised will come to Waste into Wellbeing to continue the brilliant work we do.

Cookbook Supper

Join us at The Eddington for an evening of good food and convivial dining at our second Cookbook Supper! Your meal will be cooked by Britain’s first three-star Michelin chef, Steven Doherty, a supporter of Waste into Wellbeing for some years and by David Naylor who has cooked in various food establishments over the years, including the legendary Sharrow Bay Hotel, and is now one of our regular Kitchen Leads. Included in the price of your ticket will be 3-Course Supper, reception drink (seasonal, non-alcoholic) and a mystery cookbook which once formed part of Steven’s extensive collection of hundreds of cookery books amassed over nearly 50 years. Steven has very generously donated a large selection of these to support our fundraising effort. You may be lucky and get one of Stevens signed copies! Tickets £35 per person. All profits generated will go to support the work Waste into Wellbeing does to reduce food waste and support our community.
