The Scarecrow Festival is Back!

For today's countdown to Halloween post, a bit of local news. You might remember that a nearby village has been organising a "Scarecrow Festival" since 2020, just around Halloween. We have been going there since and loved it. The mascot scarecrow is, as you can see, very seasonal, with a Jack O'Lantern as the head. I think both Halloween and autumn need scarecrows, after all it is the season of harvest and Halloween is originally a celebration of autumnal harvests. You can buy a map at local businesses, it costs £3 for one and £5 for two. I might buy two, just in case. So yeah, we will most definitely go there. And more than once. It is so perfect a place to be on an crisp autumn day.
