Presidential Handover Fellowship Event - "Cheese Box Fun" by Louise Matheson of The Dumfries Larder


A Presidential Handover Event with a difference and the last 'Fellowship' event of this year's Rotary session, arranged to 'mark' the installation of David Gibson as our new President...
An online Cheese Tasting by Louise Matheson, Owner & Propietor of The Dumfries Larder using Zoom Video Communications to meet with us and talk us through one of her very popular Cheese Boxes.

The Cheese Box:
The Cheese Box is supplied, prepared, and wrapped by Louise. Each box will contain a selection of five different cheeses for tasting, individually wrapped and identified, together with tasting notes, chutney and oatcakes - enough for two people to share. Cost £10.00 per box.
How to Order:
Phone or call in to The Dumfries Larder, confirm you are participating in Dumfries Rotary Club's Cheese Box event (to ensure we all acquire the same cheeses) and pay when ordering (preferred) either in the shop or by phone, or agree to pay on collection.
Note: Each cheese box must be collected from the Dumfries Larder Shop between the hours of 10.00am and 2.00pm on Friday 3 July by the individual ordering the box - unless they have a prior arrangement for someone to collect/pay on their behalf( ie if someone is shielding in lockdown and can't collect) 
 
Please place your order well in advance to enable Louise sufficient time to make up orders - dont leave it to the last minute!
Also Social Distancing rules are in place at the shop when you collect.
