Build a scarecrow day!

Build a Scarecrow Day is a day to celebrate a unique and fun tradition that is celebrated each year in the US.

In 1390 children were sent into the field to scare off any birds trying to eat the freshly sown seeds using a stick with a sack on the end. Now we present you with a great opportunity to get together with members of our community and celebrate the coming of autumn and the changing of the seasons. Join us on July 5th by creating a scarecrow of your very own.

We will provide the framework for the scarecrow, the stuffing and the sack (for its head). Just bring along some old clothes (or maybe a superhero outfit) and get stuffing. It costs $15 for the materials and at the end of the day you will have a special human shaped figure to scare the birds away!

Scarecrows are typically made with old clothes, so please bring an old shirt and trousers as a minimum requirement, you may want to bring gloves, boots, a hat or even something to give them facial features. Just make sure to prebook a spot >>> Here <<< as the framework for the scarecrows will be subject to availability.
