🍂 Keep everyone happy this half-term, from scarecrows to off-road forest cycling. 🍂
🚀Halesworth Scarecrow Festival
This is a must see quirky autumn tradition, running until Saturday 31st October. Local businesses and organisations create their own scarecrows and display them around the town. The theme this year is Space! Expect astronauts, aliens, rockets, planets and maybe a UFO. Pick up forms from Hetty’s Little Copy Shop, the Library or the Halesworth Bookshop. Complete the trail, find the hidden letters and vote for your favourite scarecrow. Visit Halesworth
