Festival time in Boscastle

THIS year’s #Boscastle Food, Art & Craft Festival is on October 3-4.

Last year’s #festival attracted more than 4,000 visitors to the small coastal village in #Cornwall.

Chris Searle, treasurer of the festival committee, says: ‘We raised a record £9,300 for local charities and the community last year. The festival is a great way to strengthen the fantastic community spirit that we have in Boscastle. It also provides a great showcase of all that we have to offer on the county’s north coast and Cornwall as a whole.’

The festival started 10 years ago to raise awareness that the village was alive, well, and open for business – as well as for raising funds for local charities – after floods devastated the village in 2004. It’s now a magnet for artisan producers, foodies, music-lovers, artists, and craftspeople.
