Blairadam Forest Festival, Saturday 3 December 2011
11am - 3pm
Get ready for the Christmas season with a day out at Blairadam Forest. Come along and listen to Christmas stories or get your face painted like a snowman or reindeer. Find out about the different uses of wood and try willow weaving or pole lathing before buying your Christmas Tree.
Why not try an alternative Christmas menu and make venison part of your meal? Attempt a new recipe from the venison cookery demonstration stall.
