NARBERTH FOOD FESTIVAL
This weekend the tenth annual Narberth Food Festival will take place.
Narberth is a small town that is well worth a visit anytime, but especially now when the whole town turns itself over to a gastronomical celebration.
Very much a showcase for local produce, this is the place to come and stock up on some really fresh fruit and vegetables, meat which you know has been lovingly tended whilst alive, and plenty of entertainment too. Elisabeth Luard will be there signing her latest book My Life as a Wife, other participants include Sophie Grigson and of course Dudley. A real family affair, and like the town:- welcoming, hospitable and friendly.
