We've had a wonderful weekend of beautifully decorated and dressed Christmas trees at Adderbury's second annual Festival to raise funds for our church of St Mary's of Adderbury and Katharine House Hospice and Sponsored by Banbury Litho,   David Wilson Homes, Gracewell Healthcare, Strutt and Parker,  Bloor Homes and The Rosconn Group, also Kevin Behan and Midcounties Co-operatives sponsoring the delicious mince pies.

Live music, welcome refreshment served by willing helpers and a Victorian Carol Service completed a wonderful three-day Festival for beautifully decorated Christmas trees for all visitors to our church of St Mary's Adderbury to view, delight in and vote for a favourite tree.  Our Vicar, the Rev. Stephen Fletcher, resplendent in frock coat and boots, for the glorious finale of the Victorian Carol Service and announcement of the Four Favourite Tree winning Awards.


The Children and the Young People Favourite Tree award went to the Adderbury Day Nursery for their very pretty tree .....












First Voted Favourite Tree Winner award to - Adderbury & District WI for their Resolutions Christmas Tree dressed in WI colours of green, violet and white for Give Votes for Women ...









Second Voted Favourite tree Winner award to Adderbury Pumphouse Garage for their jolly clever use of  emblem decorated paper chains ...








The third Voted Favourite tree Winner award went to The Heritage Fruit Tree Company for their ingenious use of fresh and dried fruit as decoration for their most attractive tree.....









I just love tree dressing activities for Christmas and, of cousrse, a fresh, just out of the ground tree with roots is simply the best tree of all....well that's my opinion.

What do you think, hey ???
