Teddy Bear's Picnic

It was a great afternoon, with several families enjoying the shade on a hot day. Esther had really good childrens activities, and some of the adults managed to walk over and have a guided tour of the edible woodland.

The nearby shade created just the right temperature, and everyone seemed to be very relaxed.
