A FINE food firm from North Yorkshire has teamed up with an emerging events company to offer off-thepeg picnics to concertgoers at some of this summer’s most glamorous events.
Lewis and Cooper, in Northallerton, North Yorkshire has put together a range of picnic packs for customers of Temple Roberts, an events business founded a year ago in Harrogate by Emma Ramply and Shan Wildblood.
The pair, who share almost 25 years’ experience organising major musical, sporting and cultural events around the world, met by chance after both moving back to North Yorkshire.
They are helping to bring perennially-popular pianist Jools Holland to Ripley Castle next month, as well proms events in August and September at Castle Howard, near Malton, and Harewood House, near Leeds.
Temple Roberts turned to Lewis and Cooper, one of the region’s esteemed gourmet food and wine businesses, to assemble four-course picnics with wines chosen by its award-winning drinks consultant, Danny Cameron.
