Kitchen gardener global meet-ups: 2009 (France),

The first of the new global events for KGI will start with a vist to a local market where we can select produce and talk to the growers - (If your French is up to it!) I'm hoping to have a true French meal for lunch that will take most of the afternoon and go into the evening with lots of chat. Sunday, we'll visit a second market and then, after lunch visit some local (neighbours) gardens to see French "Potagers" at work. I'm hoping to have several French/English speakers in attendance to help if you don't speak French.

We have started a blog so that you can all keep up with developments as they happen. Take a look at A French Kitchen Garden Weekend

And sounds like a couple of our (ex pat Anglais) friends are interested in coming too, if that will be ok. If anyone else coming to the event wants to stay near the Loire Valley afterwards to see the chateaux, we have a little gite available: see www.mousseaux.co.cc and you'd be very welcome, at reduced rates!

Helas! Miracles sometimes happen and I will certainly pray for one that will get me to this event but at the moment I'm afraid I must decline this wonderful invitation. Thanks so much, et Bonne Chance.

HI, Ian. There's certainly a chance we might come, Allen and I. We'll be ready for another visit to family in Cuhe by then.
Have you thought about accommodations? Can people camp on your property? Are there gites or B&B's nearby? Looking forward to it.

I can't wait, Ian !

Ian -- sounds like so much fun! Any other time I would have definitely come, but I'm due to birth a baby on or around September 17th -- so I might be a little busy then. Next time!

Woo-Hoo...is this exciting!
I wish I could say yes right now and know that I could make it happen.

But sadly it is something I can't know for sure just yet.
Will have to do some research on different aspects of the thought.

I'll update you at a later time.

Thanks so much for the invitation Ian...sounds marvelous!

Happy week~

Bea Kunz.

I'm gonna go ahead and bite off way more than I can chew and commit to this event. And I just might bring my husband, too- he took years of French in secondary school...
