May Events at High Grange

Fire Supper - Wednesday 10th May 7-11pm

The Fine Art Of Resting with Rebecca Baker - Friday 19th May 10-11.30am
Over on the wellbeing side, you can see Sara’s Instagram Live chat with Rebecca on why we aren’t resting enough, what blocks we have to rest and how we can find rest to restore our nervous systems in our daily lives, As Rebecca says in our chat, this issue is wider than simply rest, but touches on everything from the pandemic of isolation and loneliness in society and why we crave our phones for connection, to the emphasis on productivity and performance.

Half Day Fire School - The Perfect Steak - Friday 19th May 10am-2pm
A repeat of Luke's brilliant steak masterclass on 19th May - have a look at H G  instagram for photos of the last session. You will try flat iron, bone-in sirloin, rib on the bone and the most extraordinary rump steak, with tons of different techniques, and sides, as well as plenty of time to chat and ask questions, finishing with a sit down feast.


Full Day Fire School - The Full Gamut of British Outdoor Cooking - Saturday 20th May 10am-5pm
This is High Grange's full day Fire School going through all the different aspects of outdoor cooking - in fire pits and all manner of barbecues, from veggies to fish, meat to sides, they’ll cover everything and give you a full day of cooking and eating in the woodland. You’ll go home with a brilliant goody bag too.


Full Day Fire School - Cooking on the Big Green Egg - Tuesday 30th May 10am to 5pm
This is a one-off specific course for Big Green EGG (or other ceramic barbecue) users.

Whether you’re a novice or expert you will lead High Grange with new skills and tips that will elevate your game every time you cook as well as a goodie bag and full belly!
