How the day works
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your visitors, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In late May, sunset in Little Horwood is about 8:55pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:25pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
