What better way to celebrate the works of J. R. R. Tolkien than by joining in the favorite activities of hobbits: cooking and eating. Feast Week provides the perfect excuse for showing your own hobbit-like affection for a well-laid table.
As part of our Feast Week festivities, we are having a contest! Over the next two weeks, we challenge you to create a Middle-earth inspired feast, snap a photo, and enter it into the contest. We have some amazing goodies for the Grand Prize Winner, supplied by our fantastic sponsors: Weta Workshop, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, The Middle-earth™ Collection, and Artist Joe Gilronan.
Feast guidelines:
Your task is to create a Middle-earth Feast fit for Hobbits, Men, Elves, Dwarves, Wizards, or even Ringwraiths! Invite your friends and/or family to participate, decorate your spread, dress up in cosplay if you wish (cosplay is not a requirement), then snap a photo and enter it into our Middle-earth Feast Week Contest!
