It's traditionally Wassail time - when the apple trees are blessed so that they will produce good cider later in the year, with morris dancing and fire and loud noises to scare the evil spirits away.
Artistraw Cider are having their Wassail on Saturday 11th January - no morris dancers, but there will be a Green Man, folk music, flaming torches, a bonfire and mulled cider.
It starts at 6pm at Bryntirion, Clifford. Tickets are £3 each, available from the Artistraw website, and under 18s are free - they've had to introduce tickets because there is limited space. The parking is also very limited. They are not allowing dogs, and there will be no food available, but people are welcome to bring their own snacks. As the walk from the parking at Clifford church to the farm is unlit, people are also advised to bring a torch, and wrap up warm with good boots!
