The afternoon of theatre and music saw guests treated to folk performances, play readings, fun and frolics.
Wild Ivy Theatre Company performed a unique re-enactment of Wind in the Willows, while visitors were also invited to decorate the wishing tree and watch a bee talk and hive demonstration at the Moor event.
Joint Venture – George and Jenny from Steeple Morden – entertained crowds before allowing readers, singers and poets to use their equipment.
Committee member Yvonne Chamberlain said: “I am still on a high. We had such a fulfilling day.
