Saturday, Sunday & Bank Holiday Monday: Abbey Farm Flower Festival

This month will see a new three-day event in the West Dorset calendar, with the first ever Flower Festival at new destination of Abbey Farm Abbotsbury. 

Over the Bank Holiday weekend of August 26 to 28, Abbey Farm will be hosting a festival of all things floral and nature related. There will be lots of stalls by makers who create crafts inspired by nature, as well as talks, themed walks and workshops, a flower and herb menu at the Cherries Café and live music.

Organisers are encouraging visitors to dress in floral prints and, for those who want to get a little more creative, there will be a prize for the most outstanding flower-inspired outfit.
