Every year when we look for caterers for Treefest, we try to find something that will please all of our festival goers.

Christmas fundraising - a big thank you!
Thank you to everyone who bought a raffle ticket, bid on a silent auction lot or who took part in the activities in the Great Oak Hall during Enchanted Christmas.
NEW! Giant undercover festive area… must be Enchanted Christmas!
This year we have a (brand new!) giant marquee which will be an undercover area for food, drink, seating and browsing Christmas gifts.
Handpicked market stalls with Love Food Festival... must be Treefest!
With their handpicked market stalls of local producers, there will be lots of exciting food to take home with you and some will be cooking and selling some mouth watering food throughout the day for you to eat.
Treefest
One of the great joys of Westonbirt is the year-round cycle of work that goes into making the tree collection such a vibrant place.
A friendly thanks!
The Friends had their first marquee dedicated to Membership at Treefest last month and it was a fantastic success. So we would like to thank all who made it happen and helped out.
Final Treefest carvings revealed!
Over the course of the three day Treefest extravaganza we have had three expert carvers working on site to produce magical storytelling chairs for three local schools.
600 metres marked out...it must be Treefest!
It's hard to believe that it has been almost 12 months since Treefest last August and now we are only one week away from this year’s festival!...
Local and live at Treefest
If you're looking for local acts, this is the festival for you! Westonbirt Arboretum works with The 4014 Project to bring music to Treefest because of their unrivalled knowledge of the Wiltshire and Gloucestershire music scene.
Up and Away!
I have said before that a fundraiser’s life is never boring… and this weekend was no exception.
