Organic Food Festival, 11-12 Sept, Bristol

Europe's biggest organic food festival celebrates its 10th anniversary

This year's Organic Food Festival at Bristol Harbourside offers families and food-lovers more than ever before - including the UK's leading artisan producers, livestock shows, cooking demonstrations featuring celebrity chefs, and a special kids' taste tent - to celebrate the festival's 10th anniversary.

Europe's biggest celebration of all things organic provides an opportunity for visitors to taste the best food and meet leading producers from across the UK. Visitors can expect a weekend of gastronomic delights provided by more than 150 of the UK's top organic producers, sponsored by Yeo Valley.

An expected 20,000 visitors will get the chance to discover delicious food and drink, luxurious skincare, leading organic fashion labels, organic textiles and home design, as well as learn about organic gardening.

The festival will be opened by Soil Association president Monty Don, and a host of celebrity chefs will be sharing culinary wisdom in the Cookery Demo Tent - including Barney Haughton, Geetie Singh and Oliver Rowe.

At the heart of the 2010 festival will be the Food Market, where visitors will be able to taste and buy from stalls offering organic produce of the highest quality, from pork pies to ice cream.

For children, the Kids Taste Experience will offer a wealth of activities, led by the Youth Food Movement.

The Organic Food Festival Sheep Show will offer visitors the chance to swot up on different breeds of sheep while learning some interesting facts from our local farmers.

For those looking to sit back and relax with a glass of locally brewed organic cider, there will be a stage offering a line up of the best in unsigned musical talent, as well as free regular screenings in the Planetarium of award-winning documentary Food, Inc.

There is an exclusive offer for Ecologist subscribers to win tickets to the festival. The Ecologist is an official media partner of the Organic Food Festival.
