Barnes Common Winter Wassail

An ancient rural English celebration giving fruit growers and pickers the opportunity to drink to the good health of their fruit trees and to an abundant crop in the coming year, as well as bring light, noise and cheer to long, dark winter months.

We will enjoy storytelling, crafts and singing, with a Wassail Master to oversee proceedings.

A community event not to be missed, so why not join us as we make noise, make merry and share Mike’s warm spiced apple cider and some tasty snacks.

All are most welcome.

Please dress appropriately for the weather and wear sturdy footwear.

The walk will meet at the Vine Road Recreation Ground near the Pavilion.

Tickets include a hot mug of soup from the Vine Road Community Cafe. The Cafe will also be selling hot and cold driks and other refreshments on the day.
