Whirlow Hall Farm Fayre 18th September 2011

[LisaNewton]

It’s almost that time – Whirlow Hall Farm’s summer Fayre, sponsored once again by Sheffield Orthopaedics Limited, is just around the corner. The charity’s biggest annual event on Sunday 18th September is shaping up to be a fantastic day out for all the family and this year, children enter FREE!

 

The fayre is set over 25 acres and has been one of the main family events in the Sheffield calendar for over 30 years.

 

The main arena boasts a full schedule of entertainment, from dog agility to the UK’s leading trails display team and top rider Ben Slinger.

 

Whirlow’s first Horticulture show will take place on the day, with free competition entry for children and just £2 for adults to enter any number of classes. If you have produce to be proud of this year, whether you’re a seasoned competitor or having a go at growing for the first time, show off your hard work! Professionally judged with prizes for category winners.

 

Groups or societies can compete in the Carrs Silver challenge, with the best group display becoming the winners of an engraved Carrs Silver plate to display in their clubhouse with pride.

 

Elsewhere around the farm a giant marquee, sponsored by Mercury Taxis, will once again become a bustling haven of craft stalls and delights from farmers’ market traders. Fairground rides, games and donkey rides are just some of the attractions and younger children can shout along to Punch and Judy, make their own vegetable sculpture and more in the Kids Zone.

 

The Whirlow Trail Challenge run is back with a new route taking in the best of our surrounding countryside. Organised in conjunction with local club Totley RC and Accelerate running shop; and sponsored by Petermans Fork lift trucks, it promises to be better than ever before. Entry is £10 which includes free entry to the fayre, a t-shirt and a Whirlow butty. To keep up the pace, local champ and World Record Holder Carl Thackery will be leading the field and presenting prizes after the race. See http://www.whirlowtrailrace.co.uk for more info.

 

10% off in the farm shop and café on the day, boasting Whirlow reared and locally sourced produce. Also the ever-popular Whirlow Hog roast and BBQ will be fired up to get the taste buds tingling...

 

See you there!

Hi There,

 

I am a Phoenix Trader selling greetings cards, stationery & gift wrap and would be interested in having a stall at your fayre on 18th Sept. Can you please confirm whether there are any stalls available and what the stall fee is?

Thanks.
