A celebration of all thing "Home Grown"

Join us once again at the popular Wirral Food and Drink Festival where Food Matters!
The festival returns again on the August Bank Holiday on Sunday 30, from 10am to 5pm, and Monday 31, 2009, from 10am to 4pm, AT CLAREMONT FARM, NEAR BEBINGTON. Just off the M53 at junction four. See the directions page for more information.
Again there will be producers galore giving you the chance to shop ‘till you drop on the best of the region’s food.
Free shuttle buses will be running all day from Spital train station to the Festival, thanks to the support of Merseyrail.
The well-loved chefs’ demonstration stage returns hosted by the inimitable Brian Mellor, as well as the Dig a Little Deeper stage – where producers give you the chance to find out the story behind the food.
