Cornucopia Festival

We’ve had a stall at the Cornucopia Festival since its inception in 2012 at Beswick, and this, the third year, was the biggest yet; after moving to Burton Agnes last year, the setting this year was equally as beautiful at Burton Constable, and we were even blessed with sunshine this time.

We arrived early on Friday to set up for the arrivals in the late afternoon.

……and my view for three days!

Fridays are pretty much just a setting-up day for the traders and a settling-in day for the campers, but there was already a nice atmosphere building.

There was a busking hut in the craft marquee and we were all entertained by various musicians over the weekend.

Outside, Captain Kipper kept everyone amused.

It’s not every day that you see Stormtroopers wandering around…..

…..or Trolls, come to that. In fact, the Trolls paid our stall a visit soon after:
