This truly old-fashioned event in a magical setting on the Somerset Levels runs entirely on wind, sun and musclepower. Besides the celebrated West Country Scythe Championships, featuring stupendous and often hilarious feats of haymaking by international scythesmen and women, mowing a swathe through the summer scene.
Excellent live music, around 70 stalls oftraditional crafts and produce, lively environmental debates, delicious organic local food, and a variety of the best ales and ciders. Plus an exciting kids' area, now with pedal-powered Scalelectrix.
A week later than usual, and a week closer to Midsummer's day, at the height of the haymaking season, this is probably the most authentic, and enjoyable, country fair in all England!
