EVERYTHING strawberries will be going on in Oddington when a fair dedicated to the fruit takes place.

Villagers will be serving up the sweetest and juiciest freshly picked strawberries on the ‘Everything Strawberry‘ stand at Oddington Strawberry Faure on Sunday June 26.

The event is free entry and starts at 1pm in the field behind the village hall.

There will be thickly-dipped in chocolate, simply served with cream, or oozing out of strawberry cakes and scones - and some made into old fashioned strawberry lemonade. Punnets of fresh strawberries and homemade jam will be available to buy.

Always a family fun packed afternoon this year will be no exception with two special events just for the children. They are being asked to create a right royal treat to mark the Queen’s 90th Birthday by entering a king and queen fancy dress and a 'decorate a cupcake for the Queen’s birthday’ competitions. Ready-made cupcakes will be on parade waiting for all the children to put their creative talents to the test. There will be lots of prizes and rosettes for the winners. Both competitions are open to all children aged between 3-12 years old.

Also this year the North Cotswolds Wind Band will be taking requests for anyone who has a special occasion to celebrate.

There will be lots of traditional stalls to browse through including plants and books, cakes and bakes, raffle, tombola and arts and crafts. There will also be a beer and cider tent and hot roast pork and a 'grand family dog show' with prizes.

Entries on the day from 1pm, classes start at 2.30pm.
