BOOK ONLINE AND SAVE 10% some photographs by Elizabeth Zeschin Parham House and Gardens is a serene estate nestled in the picturesque Downs set within an ancient deer park. This idyllic setting is perfect for this year’s new event, the Parham Harvest Fair on Saturday 26th & Sunday 27th September 2015. Celebrating the abundance of produce that autumn brings and the traditional rituals of harvest time, Parham’s Harvest Fair brings together the very best of homemade food, locally grown produce and small holding, as well as activities such as deer walks, fungi foraging sessions and seasonal cookery demonstrations. This event is an amalgamation of the highly successful ‘Grow Your Own’ and ‘Autumn Foraging’ events, based around the burgeoning interest in cookery and food, both eaten and home-grown. This year (on Saturday 26th) ITV’s This Morning chef Phil Vickery will be demonstrating some of his favourite seasonal game recipes from his recent book Game with the ingredients being sourced directly from the Parham Estate. On Sunday 27th, Rosemary Moon will be back by popular demand, showing us how to create delicious dishes with the very best fresh produce of the season. Adults £10.00, Senior Citizens £9.00, Children (5-15yrs) £5.00 and Family (2 adults & up to 4 children) £28.00. Includes entry to the event plus the House & Gardens. Season Tickets holders are FREE. There will be the popular ‘Outdoor Working Arena’ filled with interesting demonstrations, including gundogs, a truffle expert and heavy horses. There will also be experts giving advice on beekeeping
