It's not all about the music at FarmFestival though; held on an organic farm the festival offers an intimate, laid-back alternative to large commercial festivals. Featuring clothing and jewellery stalls, delicious hog roast, cider from a local orchard, crazy golf and a mad hatter's tea party, the weekend is as relaxing as it is fun. The event also has a bar, food stalls, art installations, and lots of randomness.
