Burnham on sea’s first Christmas food festival finds flavour and favour with our West Country Correspondent, Natalie Jayne Peeke

Spread the love

 

On Saturday the 7th December food and drink traders lined the streets of Burnham on sea high street. It was the first Christmas food and drink festival. The big man himself was even there to greet children.

With many sellers offering Christmas special products such as mince pie flavoured vodka , warm and extremely tasty mulled cider and even a Christmas dinner nap which consisted of Turkey, Cranberry sauce, stuffing and bacon. What more could you possibly want.

EAT organises food festivals throughout the West Country and recently Festive Food festivals have been organised and this year was the first one in Burnham on sea, lots of locals attended to support local producers. Everyone was in high spirits and one couldn’t help but to get into the festive spirit (the mulled Cider and Christmas Carol’s certainly helped)

I attended the festivities with my parents  however it was completely family friendly with lots of activities for children and it was free to attend. I do hope that the festival is a annual event.
