Cherry Fayre and 1940's weekend

Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 July
10am - 4.30pm (last entry to the museum is 4pm).

A free family event with something for everyone!

More than 70 years ago Bewdley was the centre for a flourishing cherry trade and with a 200 year tradition of an annual Cherry Fayre since at least 1817. So we hope that people may learn of former times and support our effort to rescue the different varieties of cherry. The event is a joint event with Bewdley Civic Society, telling visitors the history of the cherry orchards in Bewdley.

1940s Re-enactors, singing, dancing, come and talk to our Education Assistants and look at our1940's artefacts in our Education Room. Bring your own picnics or purchase from the Garden Kitchen Café.
Classic 40’s and 50’s cars.
Craft stalls and 1940's stalls.
A variety of cherries and cherry trees available to buy.
Bewdley Civic Society stall and raffle.
