Organised by the same people who also hold Truck festival, Wood has proved a hit in its first three years with those looking for an intimate family festival with great music.

Wood runs entirely on renewable energy and aims to highlight green issues and hopefully promote an ecologically friendly lifestyle, with things like composting toilets, showers heated by wood-burning stove, a people powered fairground, and a solar-powered stage and dancing into the night in a bicycle powered 'discotheque'.

There are no acts confirmed yet for 2011. Expect a strong and diverse line-up of (mainly) acoustic acts on two stages which will soon be announced.

The festival offers opportunities for everyone (from children to grandparents!) to participate, with workshops covering everything from singing, woodcraft, yoga, knitting, story-telling, and thatching, to making wallets from orange juice cartons, campfire sing-alongs, a kids tent and fancy dress parade.

There are also plenty of opportunities to learn more about living a more sustainable lifestyle as well as joining in the lively lunchtime discussions and talks. Wood even has its own organic café serving locally-sourced food and it's own pub, The Hippy Arms selling locally-produced lager, ale and cider.
