Wassail 2012

We don't get beaten back very often but the winter of 2010-2011 got the better of us this time so January's Wassail regrettably had to be cancelled. But do not fear, we are back in 2012 for more Wassailing which takes place on Saturday 14th January at the farm from 4:15pm to 6:15pm. Wassailing is an anchient tradition going back hundreds of years which takes place each January to ensure a good harvest later in the year. Gifts of toast are placed in the trees to encourage the Robins (the guardians of the orchard) and loud noises are used to ward off the evil spirits, all rounded off with a hot spiced apple drink that is the "Waes Hael".

So wrap up warm and join us on the 14th..
