We had a very productive meeting on Thursday with the team from @FolkEast, discussing the plans for our involvement in this years festival.
Exciting things are afoot and we will definitely very much be there for the whole weekend!

A foray into instrument making. We remember it well! And what's more, it can be served up as a delicious Trompette de Courgette Ratatouille when you have run out of puff...

You could travel many miles before you find a festival that warms your heart more than the delightfully singular @FolkEast. So put August 15-17, 2025 in your forward planning diary now. Location TBC!
