Join us in a celebration of all that is wonderful about our traditional hay meadows here in the Yorkshire Dales. The Hay Time Festival 2008 is running from May until September and there really is something for everyone! Follow the links on the left for a month by month listing plus exhibitions and an online photo gallery.
It's all part of a larger project being run jointly with the Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust whose aim is to help farmers create and conserve these magical places.
You can see more information on the Hay Time project on the Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust's website.
NOW LAUNCHED!
The festival is now officially launched. Matthew Wilson curator at RHS Harlow Carr Gardens kindly joined us to help launch the festival. He helped students from Craven College plant up a small meadow area in the Grassington National Park car park on 13 May.
