(Lemon) Drizzle, Mud & a Whole Lot of Tea - Glastonbury 2016 in WI Glory

WI did it!

Victoria Sponge  (filled with fresh homemade WI jam, naturally!), was the most sought after cake this year in the Glasto Cakes WI tent, with lemon drizzle coming a very close second!

We welcomed visitors from far and wide (many returning from last year!), to come to enjoy tea and eat delicious cake lovingly baked by local Somerset Federation WI members.

We were SO delighted to celebrate five birthdays in a row (!!!), on a very busy Saturday, and countless others too! We were invited to be a part of a dance bomb by our neighbours, Stay Up Late, and many passers by joined us daily to raise our flag and sing Jerusalem.

As there are SO many WONDERFUL memories - we wanted to share some of the snaps we took over the week and invite you to share yours with us, too, via our Twitter feed: @WI_Glasto_Cakes

Until next time, Glastonbury! WI HEART YOU!


We were hosted on the Green Futures info poster - as the info point were yet again being inundated with questions of our whereabouts! 


When the mud set in - Pennard's Hill was well and truly full of all the drizzle - not just of the lemon variety as served in the WI tent!

Bunting, as ever, welcomed guests to the WI Tent

A snap of some of the fantastic feedback received on sticky notes by our lovely guests!

Wellies and all in this group shot!

Why thank you!
