“Yarkhill Field to Fork was a village celebration of all that is good about villages, food, drink and Herefordshire. The proverbial village green style setting made the visitors feel part of a film set while all the characters were real life.”

"An excellent event with a really friendly feel. It was a great opportunity for us to network with other producers and raise our profile amongst local people. This is a definite must-attend event for Pixley
Berries and we are looking forward to taking part again in 2016."

New this year is a rural diversification area featuring Jon from Eastnor Pottery, Lorna Hollam with felting, Clive Perryman with glass making and basket weaving.
We also have an added attraction for the older kids with a bushcraft session learning to light fires and build shelters
The 2016 festival proved the popularity and interest in supporting local producers with over 1200 people coming to enjoy the wide variety of products on sale; watch the cooking demonstrations; be entertained and ultimately raise money for The Martha Trust Charity.
We managed to raise £1000 for local community projects and £5500 for Megan Baker House.
