The 22nd Torteval Scarecrow Festival will be held this weekend on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th July 2025.
At the Torteval Parish Church you can walk the Scarecrow Trail (1½ hours approx) through some of Torteval’s delightful lanes.
Refreshments available throughout both days with licensed bar, entertainment and fete with various stalls.
This is the tenth year the GSPCA are taking part in this wonderful community event and we are hugely grateful to those at the home for the kind use of their front garden.
Are you wondering what the GSPCA theme is? Well you’ll have to head down this weekend to support the Torteval Scarecrow Festival to find out.
