Blackdown Hills Hedgelaying Competition!

If you'd like a really good country day out, come along the Blackdown Hills annual hedgelaying competition on the 10th March. This year it is at Lower Shelvin farm near Honiton - it has to move around each year.  As well as some of the finest hedgelaying in the South West, there will be the guys from Devon Rural Skills Trust doing some demos, Ivor Hancock making a stick chair, Jenny Knight with her willow creatures  and lots of other interesting local stalls.  Entertainment from a story teller called Mr Pig on at various times from 10.30 to 1.30pm, The Taunton Ukele Orchestra will play and the famous Smeatharpe WI will keep you fed and watered.  

It looks like this year we could have around 80 competitors which is a new record!! Please do pass this on to anyone who may be interested.  Entry is £2 per car and all the information, including map, is on the website at www.bhha.info
