Brendan Tate Wistreich, Farm Director at Bath City Farm, said: ‘Farm Fest is a brilliant way to mark our 30 years of charitable work, but it’s also an opportunity to connect with the Farm’s mission today of providing a safe and nurturing environment for education, sustainability, and community.’
Clarita Floyd-Sanchez, Events & Bookings Coordinator at Bath City Farm, said: ‘We’re so excited for the Farm Fest this year. All proceeds from ticket sales will directly support the Farm’s ongoing projects and running costs. Tickets are based on ‘pay what you feel’ pricing, so there’s no barrier to who can come and people can contribute what they’re able to.’
