Farm Fest compere Bobby Kalafi said:
“Farm Fest is a fantastic day out for all the family, music, arts, crafts and delicious locally grown food all come together in a brilliant and fun day fuelled by community spirit.”
Organiser Elliot Wollen said:
“We hope to improve on the success of the last two Farm Fest events and host another fun packed day where all the community can come together and enjoy brilliant local food and music.”
The community have shown their support for us with their fantastic response to our crowdfunder earlier in the year to help build the willow classroom, this event is our chance to give something back.”
