SUMMARY:Bere\, the Ancient Grain: Stories\, Superstition & Sustenance.
DESCRIPTION:An Orkney Time Travel and Immersive Orkney event. \nTicket price: £30 includes mill tour and baking session \nMax number: 10 \nTicket booking link: Orkney Time Travel event tickets from TicketSource. \nThis historic baking event is a hands-on cultural experience that immerses you in the rich heritage of Early Modern Orkney. The event begins at the historic Barony Mill\, Orkney’s last working watermill\, where the ancient grain bere barley is still milled using traditional methods. Bere has sustained Orkney’s people and livestock for centuries—and it’s still at the heart of local food and folklore. \nAs you explore the mill\, you’ll uncover the fascinating customs\, beliefs\, and healing traditions surrounding bere and food preparation. You’ll also visit a sacred healing well dedicated to Saint Magnus\, and learn how bere\, water\, and other natural ingredients were once used in folk medicine and witchcraft. \nThe journey continues at Birsay Community Hall\, where local chef Lorraine Johnston will guide you through a hands-on baking session. You’ll learn to make traditional bere oatcakes—a true taste of Orkney’s past. While the oatcakes bake\, enjoy captivating storytelling by Ragnhild Ljosland\, bringing Orkney’s myths and history to life.
