The Greens make Woodcrest farm available for a group of environmental students from the local university to have their annual barn-party.
Cleaning the barn was really hard work, but wow! How very satisfactory when it was all ready!
We had hay rides (done by Russell) a whole pig-barbeque, old-school games, pumpkin carving, dancing and a big bonfire. Unfortunately our camera stopped working after a while, so I didn’t get any of the night shots!
