Our festival is fast approaching – gates open at 1pm on Saturday!
Fun for children, great stalls, and lots of experts to help you to help nature and some delicious hospitality to refresh you while you listen to music in the meadows.
Pippa Heylings MP will officially open the event at 2pm and then there will be a scything and pruning demonstration, children’s activities and a botany walk. Experts from the local Wildlife Trust and On the Verge will talk about their activities and you can sign up your garden to the Duxford Nature Network. In the evening, under a nearly full moon, you can stay for bat detecting and moth trapping.
Weather looks good!
Little ones can hear stories about the creatures that live behind the doors on the field, and come dressed as their favourite character. Bethany bee, Ellie the hawk moth, Nick the newt, Robbie rabbit, Harry hedgehog, Lucy the ladybird, Stan the Starling, Bluey the damselfly and Sonia the song-thrush. Hope to see you there!
