The Parish Council is to hold it’s first Scarecrow Festival from 21 to 28 August.
We are hoping this will be a Parish wide community event, attracting participants of all ages, with residents able to make their own scarecrow and then follow a walking trail(s) to view the scarecrows displayed in front gardens and in the Community Garden in Graveley Road, Great Wymondley.
So why not join in and start designing your scarecrow – any theme, big or small. You can find lots of ideas on the internet, including from scarecrow festivals held in other parishes. The entry form and terms and conditions of the event can be viewed here.
The event is intended to be COVID-19 secure – depending on the restrictions (if any) in place at the time, residents will be able to make their scarecrow at home and then walk around the Parish with their own households (and/ or friends and family, if permitted) independently at a time of their choosing.
