Throughout the past ten years, festivals have become more and more popular in the UK and there has been a rise in small independent festivals as an alternative to the established mainstream music festivals. Food and the great outdoors has also had an increase in interest, as more people are going back to basics by engaging with local goods and the nature reserves that the UK has to offer.

Feast, is a newly established outdoor food festival located in the Lake District. Feast decided to marry the two ideals of food and adventure together and create an exciting and diverse way of celebrating good wholesome food through the exploration of the wilderness.

Feast welcomes both experienced and inexperienced campers to the festival and encourages people to widen their knowledge of brush craft and back to basic skills of good old fashioned camping.

Feast is not like any other food festival, it runs for two days and two nights over three separate locations. Each location is interlinked through breakfast, lunch and supper where campers have to trek to each meal.

Campers arrive in morning of the first day located at Aurora Meadows and are welcomed by a selection of breakfasts served up by various stalls selected from around the 9 | FEAST | 10

country. Each stall serves up their take on their own perfect camp breakfast using local fresh ingredients from their area.

When the food has gone down campers trek to Noon Lake where they are met by the lunchtime food stalls who work along the same concept of the morning location. During this period there will be experts demonstrating bush craft and backwards cooking and are open for people to dig in

and get their hands dirty. This is a great opportunity for less experienced campers to learn new skills.

Later that afternoon, the hike takes people to the final location, Dusk Peak where there is a wholesome selection of evening meals followed by supper and evening entertainment of live music and a campfire.

Camping has many positive attributes that anyone can see if they approach it with an open mind and a willingness to learn. The willingness to learn is important because even long time campers learn new and wonderful things every time they go out. Even some of the things people find distasteful can be wonders for the person with the right mindset.

Feast has taken on board that survival skills have become a popular thing to learn, especially because they take time and are fun to develop over the years. Feast has set up demonstrations by experts throughout the day for those who want to learn some new skills. While camping many can learn skills and responsibilities that either don’t exist in the city and at home, or aren’t of any use there.

Campfire cooking can be downright civilized. No matter how spectacular the scenery, meals around the campfire are often the highlight of the camper’s day.

Modern camp stoves and specialized cookware make the cook’s job easier, but nothing beats the taste and appeal of a meal cooked over the campfire. Success at campfire cooking will

encourage you to go camping more often. Cooking over a campfire is one of those things in life that you just can’t explain to someone that’s never done it. Everyone knows of the toasted, melted, burned, dropped in ash and wiped off marshamallow treat loved by kids of all a ges. But, even better is the smell of bacon or cobbler or beans mixed with the smoke from burning oak or pine. You can’t

bottle that smell! This is where Feast comes in and makes a whole new experience of campfire food. The hiking of the day sure would have built up an appetite amongst the campers, so the evening will be jam packed with a selection of proper rustic food served up around a campfire seasoned with live music.

Camp Facilities

Feast is a great way to get back to the basics and live naturally. But even the most seasoned campers are pushed to the limits of endurance when campsite facilities are too basic, not properly maintained or are overcrowded. Dusk Peak is a great resting place after the long day of hiking and most of all eating! Throughout the day there is also basic facilities at Aurora Meadows andNoon Lake.

The campsite facilities include• Two large family shower rooms • Another separate WC with hand basin• A large washing-up area • Solar-heated hot water • Large water butt for rinsing wetsuits etc• All cold water taps are drinking water• Eco ‘gents facility’

Campsite recycling

We take recycling very seriously here at Feast and encourage all campers to recycle as much as possible. It does take a few moments to do but it’s much better than stuffing it into landfill.

We have recycling facilities for glass, tins/cans, plastic bottles, other types of plastic, paper, cardboard, Tetrapaks (drinks cartons), metal and foils, batteries and all compostable waste. All of these are now in the main barn next to the facilities.

There is also a bin for landfill but the aim is to keep its use to an absolute minimum. Helping us to recycle as much as possible all helps to lessen our impact on the environment.
