The Scarecrow Festival started in 2004 and was instigated by, among others, the late Denise Illett. It is a great opportunity for the community to get crafting to produce such creations as Postman Pat, robots, burglars climbing drain pipes etc. and to display them at the front of their houses for all to see.
Each year a band of volunteers open up the Community Orchard and offer refreshments to anyone who would like to partake. The Community Orchard is also home to some of the scarecrows and there will be the chance to make mini-scarecrows too. This event is well worth a visit as it shows the talents and diversity of the community and is a lovely day out for families, just take a pleasant stroll around town and see how many you can spot.
Scarecrows will be up across Wolverton across the weekend.
On Saturday 12th September the Community Orchard (alleyway off, Woburn Ave, Wolverton, Milton Keynes MK12 5AY) will be hosting their Heritage Day Autumn Celebration between 11:00-17:00. There will be live music, food & refreshments and they will be raising money for The Orchard from stalls during the event. Why not bring a picnic blanket and join in the fun and festivities?
On Sunday 13th September MK Canals is hosting the first Wolverton Canal and Railway festival. Why not walk down to Wolverton Park and the Grand Union Canal to enjoy boat trips, entertainment, refreshments and learn about the canal and railway that Wolverton is built upon.
