Pitshanger International Food and Drink Day

Community show support for local shopping

Local residents from Pitshanger enjoyed a day of shopping with a bit of a difference last weekend as they celebrated International Food and Drink Day.

Walter Wyeth from Pitshanger Bookshop reports :

'' A lot of people turned up to support Brent Wilkinson, the chap who wants to open a new deli & he was selling cupcakes for charity at £1.00 a go- he quickly sold  out & spent the rest of the morning telling people of his plans for the deli ( if Tesco is kept out) ).

'' Besides the food shops supporting the festival, ( such as Lisa's restaurant & Cinnamon cafe amongst others) new arrival Brenda's pet boutique had a display of " international " dog food ( see picture on right) & Stems Flower Gallery had a competition to get children guessing where in the world certain plants came from!''

All in all a most successful day.
