Join us for the first in our series of Rural Life Weekends, which focuses on how people of the past would have lived at this time of the year.

Yes, it looks green and lovely, yet early in the season their diet was meagre and preserved supplies from the previous year would have been running very low.

Through demonstrations, short talks and informal chats you can find out what tasks would have been important to the inhabitants of our homes at this time of year with so much promise.
