This seventh annual Exmoor Food Festival finished in a feast of activity at the Porlock Food Fayre on Sunday, when over 750 visitors sampled the very best of Exmoor food and drink from 27 local producers.
The ever-popular Exmoor Breakfast at Wheddon Cross served around 230 breakfasts on both Sundays of the festival, and has earned its place as a firm favourite in the festival calendar. The open day at the local ice cream producers, Styles, was a hit with visitors, and a new addition to the festival, the Lyn Food Fest and Treasure Hunt proved to be a big draw for both visitors and locals.
Exmoor Food Festival organiser Kate Harris, said, "This year has proven to be even more successful than ever. Plans are already under way for next year's events. Any local producers who want to take part in next year's festival should contact Somerset Food Links on 01458 241 401 to book their place."
