About the event

Didcot Wassail
Come and join Didcot's first* wassail!
*in recent times

A wassail is an old British tradition of blessing the trees to give us a good harvest. It's a lovely community event that anyone can join in.

There will be:
-A marquee to keep dry under
-A noisy procession from the car park to the orchard (bring pots and pans or something to make noise with, if you like!)
-Traditional dance
-Songs and readings
-Hanging bread from trees to feed the spirits, sourced from would-be food waste
-Apple cake
-Mulled cider or apple juice

Arrive by 11.30 at the allotment gate, via the car park on Sandringham Rd. Wear warm, waterproof clothes and walking boot, wellies, or sturdy shoes
