Danville Faire 2005 gallery
Danville was a one-off faire, set in Faversham, Kent, along the road from Dover to London. It portrayed a chance meeting between King Henry VIII (returning from France and the Battle of the Spears) and Queen Catherine of Aragon (returning from Scotland and the Battle of Flodden Field). It was held April 9/10, 2005. Unfortunately, the venue was a sodden swamp by the time we were able to set up. It did, however, provide plenty of work cleaning off rust for our squires (on loan from Charlotte Wood Middle School).

FCC was held March 12/13 in 2005. In addition to the usual things, there was the Tudor (Cast Iron) Chef competition, which Mistress Marta entered… and won.
Gallery #1: Tudor Chef. The secret ingredient was mushrooms. And Mistress Marta made: Mushroom Bisque, Hens with Mushroom and Fruit Stuffing, and Pork & Mushroom Pie. The winning entry was the poultry.
Gallery #2: Everything Else

This was the first year that Golden Gate Faire was held. It seemed to be perfect weather for a Faire… foggy and cool.
