Reports From Farina During The 2016 Works
Farina was flying the French flag at half mast today (July 16, 2016) after hearing of the dreadful massacre on Bastille day.
We have a close association with the people of Ploudaniel and we fly their flag today as a statement of solidarity.
The 2016 program is now under way with Laurie Gray and Helen Rayner the first bakers to get things rolling.
As you can see from the bread images the old oven is baking beautifully.
Noel, Bill and Margaret cleaned and white washed the bakery in a stellar effort over the weekend.
We have been advised by Martin MacLennan that road conditions between Lyndhurst and Farina tend to be very variable at this time of the year.
Despite this, volunteers/visitors are arriving on site, and it’s business as usual!
Roads are currently open again, but please “do your homework” before your trip North.
The new store room is almost complete and the new shed looks like a battle ground made up of four armies. The fridgies, the steelies., the sparkies and the plumbers all going for it.
There are 38 volunteers onsite.
The images below were flashed down to us in Adelaide by our own Master Baker, Martin MacLennan.
The above text and the associated images will be moved to the “Restoring Farina 2016” page when more late news is received.
