A COMMUNITY farm is hosting an open day with activities, food and music.

Common Soil, in Summer Street, Stroud, will open its gates on Sunday, May 18, from 11am to 8pm.

The event is free to attend and will feature activities for all ages.

The programme includes a farm tour at 11.30am, a pick-and-mix herbal tea workshop at noon, maypole dances at 1pm, and a natural first aid workshop at 2pm.

The herbal tea and first aid workshops have a £5 fee.

There will also be native rescued owls to meet, a treasure hunt for children, and a wormery to populate.

Wood-fired pizzas and Common Soil salad will be available for donation at lunchtime, with tea and cake served all day.

Dogs on leads are welcome.

A spokesman for the event said: "We're opening up our site for a day of activities, food, and music - please come and join us."

To get there, take the gate on the left before Woodside/Summer Street turns to a country lane.
