The Village Festival

Untitled-2

Just one more sleep until The Village Festival opens its gates in Edinburgh Gardens.

Over the last few days the tents have gone up, the caravans have been wheeled in, bunting has been hung, blackboards written, shows have been rehearsed, costumes have been chosen and magical ingredients have been sourced.

At 6pm tomorrow, Friday 28 October The Village Festival will start its party! A cross between an arts festival, a village fair and a carnival, this year's three day festival has more than 160 different shows, musical performances, one-on-one experiences and difficult-to-describe creative endeavours.

There are surprises around every corner with entertainment aplenty. Plus you are encouraged to become an active creative participants in the festival.

Have you checked out Events Calendar? You can filter by artform, day, time and more to make sure you get the best festival experience for you!
The music stage runs throughout the festival and features everything from ska to salsa and surf to sludge tango! The theatre selection is equally as impressive and caters for young and old. With puppets a-plenty and Dane Certificate’s magic show, the kids will have wide-eyed stories that last well beyond Cup Day.

As the evening rolls on there’s queer comedyprovocateur cabaret and the Freaky Sexy Weird Variety Show.
Fri 28 October - 6pm - midnight
Sat 29 October - 12noon - midnight
Sun 30 October - 12noon - 9pm

Thank you.

I have a big pile of plants to give away. I don't know what they're called, but they seem to be a type of succulent. Bright yellow flowers throughout most of the year. Very tough, will grow in hard/clay/poor soil and very drought tolerant, so great for greening up a difficult spot.

See photos.

NB the pile is now much bigger since the photo was taken! Take some or all.

This young pear tree is looking for a home and a friend.
I bought it last week, intending to espalier it. A sign at the nursery said it was self-pollinating but when I got home and looked closely at the label on the plant itself, I learned that it needs a pollinator: Beurre Bosc or Nijisseiki. Its botanical name is Pyrus communis  Sensation, also known as Red William.
Neither of the pollinators is growing close to my garden, so there is little hope of fruit unless Newlands’ bees are long distance travellers, so please let me know if you would like to have it in your garden. It is, of course, free to anyone who wants it.
Gillean.
