SUMMARY:Loose Goose in Stranraer
DESCRIPTION:Every journey has an edge. \n\n\n\nFor The Loose Goose\, that edge is Stranraer — where Dumfries & Galloway meets the sea\, and the land opens out towards somewhere else. \n\n\n\nAfter travelling across the region\, she’s arrived at the end of her migration. But perhaps an ending is just another kind of beginning. \n\n\n\nCome and meet the Goose for stories\, sounds\, making and imagination. Share something about the place you call home\, the journeys you’ve made\, or the places you dream of going. \n\n\n\nBecause stories travel too. They cross borders\, pass between people and carry pieces of places with them. \n\n\n\nAt the edge of the land\, where might your story take off? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Information\n\n\n\nFree / Drop-In SessionsThis event will take place at Creative Stranraer\, 23 King St\, Stranraer DG9 7JU and The Unexpected Garden\, Harbour Street\, Stranraer\, DG9 7RD \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility Information

SUMMARY:What Can The Geese Teach Us About Our Food Culture? with The Greenhouse
DESCRIPTION:When people think of Dumfries & Galloway’s food culture\, we might think of our sprawling green pastures home to spring lamb\, Belted Galloway beef and dairy herds. But we are also fertile soil for a huge variety of delicious vegetables\, fruits and herbs across smallholdings\, farms and market gardens across our region. The Greenhouse showcases our plentiful plantiful growers\, rustling up imaginative\, delicious and seasonal menus while exploring the food stories that tie us to our land and our past. \n\n\n\nBut food culture has never been static: just as the wintering geese change their migration route in response to weather patterns and food availability\, so has our food story evolved with invasions\, partnerships\, new trade routes\, technology and migration. And as external forces challenge our relationship with our current food culture\, October’s Greenhouse Supper Club invites us to ask: what parts of our food history do we want to keep\, and how could we adapt to a changing food future? \n\n\n\nOur October Supper Club welcomes you to a four-course\, plant based evening meal in a beautiful pastoral setting just out of Dumfries. Complimentary tea and coffee\, BYOB. We can cater to dietary requirements with at least a week’s notice. \n\n\n\n£30 per head 18:30 for 19:00 dinnerShawhead Village Hall DG2 9SL \n\n\n\nBook via this link: forms.gle/o1znQC8sAje7Kn3w7
