Cressing Temple Barns: Essex Food and Craft Fair
Come and enjoy the Essex Food and Craft Fair at the historic Cressing Temple Barns and organised by Charlie Owen Events.
Join us this June for the Essex Food and Craft Fair hosted by Charlie Owen Events at Cressing Temple Barns.
This event is a favourite with both exhibitors and the public. Set in the glorious surroundings of the medieval barns, enjoy food and drink stalls, cooking demonstrations and FREE tasting throughout the day.
Exhibitors also include arts and crafts, fashion and beauty, gifts and household accessories, outdoor and garden goodies as well as the unique and uncategorisable.
Running for over twenty years there is a huge range of food and drink on offer with something to whet everyone’s appetite and whistle.
