👩🏻‍🍳 New Ulster-Scots recipe cards to celebrate baking heritage at President Arthur Homestead 👩🏻‍🍳

Visitors to President Arthur Homestead in Cullybackey can discover a taste of local history with the launch of a new collection of traditional Ulster-Scots recipes that celebrate the area’s rich baking heritage.

We have collaborated with locally renowned chef Paula McIntrye through Tourism NI’s America250 Experience Development Programme, with support from the Department for Communities, under the US-NI250 Scheme, to devise recipes to highlight the importance of local food.

These recipe cards will educate visitors on the importance of locally sourced foods and to take home some skills to discover the craft of baking.

The initiative aims to preserve and promote the culinary traditions that form an important part of the Ulster-Scots story and the heritage of the ancestral home of Chester Alan Arthur, 21st President of the United States, as part of the USA 250 anniversary celebrations.

The recipes reflect the simple ingredients, practical skills and resourcefulness of traditional Ulster-Scots home baking, giving visitors the opportunity to recreate these cherished flavours such as griddle scones, Indian sodas, roussel bread and sparbled fadge while discovering more about everyday life in generations past.

📅 Visitors are invited to experience the flavours first-hand at three special tasting and demonstration sessions on Saturday 28 November, at 11am, 12.15pm and 1.30pm.

🎟️ Tickets cost £5 and places are limited.

☎️ To book email [email protected] or T: 028 9335 8262.

It’s our Birthday 🙌🎊 🎂

It just doesn’t seem possible that The Hub Gift Shop has been open 5 years!!!

What started as an idea grew from an empty shell to a thriving gift shop & community hub - right in the heart of Cullybackey village 💛

The real heart of the Hub though is of course all our volunteers, committee, customers & visitors. You make this place special!

To our Makers & Suppliers (including our weekly Knit & Natter and Card Making groups) thank you for providing us with such gorgeous items for everyone to gift or take home.

To our volunteers – there’s simply not enough words to convey how much you do, in the shop and behind the scenes at events and workshops!
Thanks to Delightful Bites…for just being open next door 😂 You perk us right up! Coffee and the craic!!

Thanks to our committee for supporting all of our decisions along the way.

Running a not-for-profit shop hasn’t been easy, but your support means so much! Every sale, recommendation, suggestion, encouragement and kind word has kept us going, so thank you!!

Here’s to many more memories to come.

Cheers 🥂

P.S. we had so much fun at our party last night we didn’t take a lot of photos…so this is the morning after lol A HUGE THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO CAME!!!
