...and that was Harvest Home 2025!
Thanks to Alasdair HM and Sam Macphail for these photos, if anyones got any more I'd love to see them and add to our pictoral journey... please post them here.
Harvest Home takes over my life for a few weeks each year, but when you see the faces of everyone relaxed, enjoying time together and celebrating our amazing community it's all worth while!
So many people play their part in making the day what it is and I'm always nervous in case I miss anyone out with my thanks...
This years Harvest Home was brought to you by:
Sam and his team at Langford Marquees.
John Sly, Simon Leader , Heather and Darren Wilcox for decorating the marquee and setting all the tables up.
