THE Foyle Beekeepers'
Association are holding a unique culinary event in
Moville this Friday to raise funds for local cancer
patients and their families.
The association are hosting Michael Young who is
executive chef at Malone Golf Club in Belfast and a
teacher of culinary arts at Belfast Institute. Mr
Young will be cooking a delicious salmon starter and
a venison main using honey as part of the
ingredients. During the second part of the evening,
he will demonstrate how to make an encaustic beeswax
painting. This involves the skilful use of different
coloured beeswax being worked into a painting using
the heat of an iron. The picture will be one of the
prizes raffled on the night. The evening will also
include a fun session of storytelling from
Greencastle's own Paddy McCartney, who is also a
beekeeper. Tea and light refreshments will be
served. Admission is €10 and all proceeds will go to
the Moville Cancer Support Group based at Serenity
House. The venue is the Foyle Hotel, Moville, on
Friday, October 3, starting at 8.30pm. Everyone
welcome. |
