PRESENTS

The inaugural FLAVOUR; Nottinghamshire's Real Food Festival is scheduled to take place at

Clumber Park on Sunday 7th September 2008 from 10.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m..

FLAVOUR is designed as a shop-window for small producers and independent retailers wanting to increase their visibility in the market. The emphasis for the Festival is on FOOD; a few retailers of auxiliary services (cooking schools, kitchen implement suppliers etc) will be invited to take part, but the majority of exhibitors will be focussing on food, allowing buyers to enjoy tasting experiences and one-to-one discussions with producers on the subject of provenance and processes.

ABOUT THE VENUE

Clumber Park is part of Nottinghamshire's famous 'Dukeries' region, formerly the seat of many titled families. The Park is made up of nearly 4,000 acres of woodland, heath and farmland, and is extremely popular with walkers and cyclists from the nearby cities of Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and South Yorkshire. Clumber welcomes an average of 3,000 visitors per Sunday in September.

Our aim is to provide a lively event which will provide an effective, value-for-money marketing tool to quality food producers and retailers, and an enjoyable and lively event for buyers. There will be no entrance fee for buyers at the Show, which we hope will encourage attendance (normal entrance fees to Clumber Park will apply to all buyers). We hope that the Show will become a regular event.
