What a Saturday at the Southminster Flower Show

Southminster, you were wonderful. From the moment we set up to the final moments of the afternoon, it was an absolute pleasure being part of such a fantastic event. The setting was beautiful, the crowds were warm and enthusiastic, and the energy throughout the day was everything we could have asked for.

It was brilliant to see so many people engaging with what we do — from little ones discovering historical crafts for the first time to adults deep in conversation about Viking life and history. That curiosity and enthusiasm is what drives us and days like today remind us why we love what we do.

Thank you to the organisers for having us and thank you to everyone who stopped by our pitch, got hands-on with the crafts or simply came over for a chat. Every single one of you made the day.

If you would like to find out more about Eastseaxe or are thinking about joining us — whether in combat, crafts, cooking or living history — we would love to hear from you.
