Last weekend, Whitehall Garden Centre at Lacock near Corsham held a Celebration of Family Fun Weekend. Were you there? Tell us about the day or add your harvest photographs to our gallery.

The event, which ran from Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd of October, combined food tasting in the garden centre's award winning farm shop, with apple tastings, apple pressing and cider tasting.

A spokesperson from Whitehall Garden Centre at Lacock described the event as, "A great day out for the family." 

There was also expert advice on apple and pears, with a Wiltshire bee keeper around on the Sunday to get tips from. Share any recipes or ideas you got from the day with us on the Corsham People.

A hog roast was available, as well as a demonstration of chainsaw wood carving. For those younger visitors to the local garden centre, Chuffy the Train was in action and a Punch and Judy show was put on.

Look out for Chuffy the Train when Christmas comes around, as he is sure to be out giving young Corsham kids a fun ride around the garden centre.

    The wood carving was amazing and you can see the end result at Whitehall. I particularly like the dog looking up at the squirel.
