Floating Feast: Spring Edition by Canal Dream CIC
Make dumplings on a floating barge this spring — a hands-on cooking and dining experience. Join us aboard the Floating Garden barge for a special spring gathering on the water. This intimate, small-group experience invites you to slow down, cook, and share food together in a unique setting on the water.
Celebrate the season by turning the freshest spring ingredients into handmade dumplings, and enjoy a gentle evening of making, cooking, and sharing a meal together. This is a hands-on, relaxed cooking and dining experience. No prior cooking experience is needed.
What to expect:
Hands-on instruction in making and tasting two flavours of vegetarian dumplings using a selection of fresh seasonal ingredients.
A selection of two - three seasonal salads and a pot of herbal tea to share.
A special dumpling and dipping sauce recipe to take with you, so you can recreate the experience at home.
Open to all, Capacity: 10 guests
Things to Know:
The menu is vegetarian. Unfortunately, we are not able to cater for gluten-free diets.

About the Canal Creative Calendar (CCC)
The Canal Creative Calendar (CCC) is a monthly programme of art and nature events hosted on the Floating Garden Barge, produced by the non-profit arts organisation Canal Dream CIC in partnership with the environmental charity Global Generation. It connects people with the waterways through diverse, sustainable creative activities inspired by the canal’s communities, environment, art and cultural heritage. As an emerging initiative without core funding, all ticket income supports essential costs and the continued development of community-based programmes.
