HOME FARM FEST 2016: A pictorial look back at last year’s festival

THE countdown is well and truly on for Home Farm Festival 2016 at Chilthorne Domer which raises money for the Piers Simon Appeal and its School in a Bag initiative.

Organisers are going all out to put on the biggest and best festival yet at Home Farm which is running from Friday, June 10, 2016, through to Sunday, June 12, 2016.

Last year was the festival’s tenth and raised a whopping £46,000 – nearly £20,000 more than Home Farm Fest 9.

The School in a Bag project has come about from the Piers Simon Appeal which was formed soon after the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami in which hundreds of thousands of people were killed including former Yeovil College student Piers Simon. The SIAB initiative sees schoolbags filled with everyday education items such as pens, pencils and paper – plus eating utensils – and are sent out to poor and orphaned children around the globe.

Tickets are priced £40 for the entire weekend or £12 for the Friday night, £20 for all-day Saturday, or £15 for the Sunday. It will be free for children aged up to five and half-price for children aged six to 17 years.

Camping facilities are available. It will cost £5 to pitch your tent and £10 for campervans, motorhomes and trailer tents.
