Many organisations will have displays, or will be providing services for young and old, from donkey rides puppets and safe swimming for the children, art activities, soil tests for the home gardener, to relaxing massages for the those wanting to treat their bodies.
There will be demonstrations and talks from a variety of speakers on topics relating to organics and healthy lifestyles.
