Harvest Festival at Brixton Windmillschedule Time: 1pm to 5pmgroup Capacity: 150The event will be an afternoon at Brixton Windmill and Brixton Windmill Centre celebrating the harvest of our own-grown heritage wheat to be milled at Brixton Windmill. The event will have an international focus, looking at how wheat is present all around the world and integral to almost all cuisines, forming the foundations the language of food across cultures. By celebrating the different uses of wheat across all cultures, we will be exploring the make up of our local population and hoping to break down any perceived or physical barriers to community engagement and interaction, especially where English is a second language. By looking at food in the home and traditions in preparing food, the event will be intergenerational, collecting recipes and stories from the kitchen from older residents and capturing new ideas from children and young people. There will be an ideas board, mini baking workshops in the centre's catering kitchen, and stalls from local food vendors showcasing their wheat based produce.Free Guided Tour of the Windmillschedule Time: 1pm to 5pmgroup Capacity: 6Booking Required:https://www.brixtonwindmill.org/product/book-brixton-windmill-tour/ Last Entry: 16:30Children are very welcome, but because of the steep ladders they are not allowed to go above the first floor if they are less than 1.2m tall.
