le weekends at Camont: the friends sessions
Remember those special times when Bob and George and Willie got together and jammed all night? Or the Duke dropped by with his entourage for a mid-summer masquerade fest? How about when your favorite friends showed up with a hamper full of goodies for an impromptu pique-nique on the terrace? Put them all together, pop open a box of cold Pink Wine, and join me in celebrating the French Summer with old friends and new… at Camont!
Pop over for a weekend to bake, i-shoot & can to your heart’s content with some of my best friends. This French Summer I am booking out the Gypsy Caravan for friends only- those mad, special creative and talented friends of Camont.
Le Weekend #2, August 4 & 5 with Emm at Camont.
“How to Make Bread”- A 1-day bread making workshop with Emmanuel Hadjiandreou, a.k.a. Em, based on his best selling, award-winning book.
Meet Emmanuel. Emmanuel Hadjiandreou. Just call him Em.
Em lives with his family in Hastings on the South Coast of England. Originally from South Africa of a Greek family, he bakes. And bakes and bakes. And now, he teaches you to bake, too. Join Em at Camont in Kate’s Kitchen to discover the journey of good bread using organic local French heritage wheat and Em’s fool-proof, easy techniques. You’ll go home smiling with the knowledge that you too, can make good bread. Who else is coming over for a weekend?
Le Weekend #1 July 15th Tim Clinch
“iPhone in the Kitchen”- A one time, one-day iPhoneography mini-workshop with Tim Clinch, international award-winning Food Photographer. Tim shares his approach to summer food photography at Camont using his favorite camera- the one that’s always with him. Here’s a few of his thoughts on using his iPhone and his favorite app- Snapseed.
The iPhone in the Kitchen workshop is a just a small part of our full three-day Natural Light Natural Food workshops; We just thought it would be fun to have more people for a morning of iPhoneography! So, this mini-workshop lasts from nine am to one pm followed by group lunch. Camping is encouraged so join us as we celebrate La Fête Nationale or Bastille Day-at-Camont!
