Last weekend saw the Scarecrow Festival in Meyrals.  This annual event started as a small quaint event but has over the last 20 years grown into a massive event for the village with music and feasting and craftsman exhibiting local crafts such a woodturning, lace making & blacksmithing.  Some of the scarecrows were very inventive and are made from items destined for recycling!  The meal afterwards at La Merenda was delicious.
