The Thames Festival was a brilliant day and it was great to see so many familiar, and new, faces turning up on the day. We sold a fair few glasses of wine and Southwark Bridge was a beautiful place to be as the sun set and we watched the nice people on the bridge enjoying a glass of wine.
It was great to have a bar that was designed by the lovely people organising the Thames festival (Clare, Kitty, Kath etc) who all made it a pleasure to work on . All very cool. The bar was also decked out with grapes grown in South London gardens and it was fun that people were able to eat a grape or two as they waited for the speedy and highly efficient Urban Wine Events team to serve them a glass of English or French wine.
Thanks to the Wombles recycling project for providing the chillers and Newham Food Access Project for helping with the grapes for the grape pressing.
Only a quick rest and then it’s on to the harvest on October 3rd and all the madness that this will bring!
Keep your eyes peeled for the Urban Wine film that wil soon be uploaded onto this website!
