We're back at the Trinity Showground for the County Harvest Festival on October 2024. It's a special year with Bishop Martin as president of the Suffolk Agricultural Association and leading us in worship.
Arrive from 11.30am for stalls, horses and lunch. The Harvest service will be at 2pm. Join us for a brilliant day out and to show your gratitude for the Harvest - to God and for the Farming Community.
Take a look at the video to get a flavour of the last County Harvest on the Showground in 2022.
The 2023 Suffolk Harvest Festival was celebrated at St Edmundsbury Cathedral on Sunday 1 October. With a focus on farming and living water, we were delighted that farmers, families, school children from Wetheringsett CofE Primary School and animals were all in attendance. Bishop Martin led the Harvest Service, and was joined by Beth Duchesne from Farming Live in conversation with Andrew Blenkiron, Estate Director at the Euston Estate and Patrick Barker, E J Barker & Sons, Lodge Farm as they discussed the Harvest theme of water in regard to farming in the county. Lightwave groups helped with the service and childrem's activities and Lightwave Agricultural Chaplaincy organised for livestock to be present. Read the full story on our diocesan website here.
