Cleve Field Days 2012

 
Cleve Field Days.  This was a bit of a country experience for me!!  The businesses that my husband and I work for both had tents here, so we drove up together from Port Lincoln.  It was a beautiful clear morning so the sky was blue, the fields were lush and green and the odd field was filled with bright yellow canola.  Very pretty indeed.
I knew nothing about what the Field Days would entail and I was pleasently suprised!  For those that have not been or have never heard of this event its held every second year and features a heap of agricultral stuff - of which i know nothing about!  The upside is, that it has other stalls there to keep a fashionable foodie like me entertained.
For me, the highlight was all the wonderful food in the EP Farmers Market Tent and the Arty Eyre fashion parade. 
Lincoln Estate - Abalone Spring Rolls & Coconut Crusted Prawns.  Mmmmm
Melt - Fudge made locally in Port Lincoln.  So soft and chocolately.
Pope's Honey.  The creamed honey is so good.  You can eat this stuff by the teaspoon.
The Queen Bee's in there somewhere!!
Biscotti - made by Nada Gabone from Port Lincoln

Biscotti, Baklava and all things yummy, nutty and sweet

Climb abourd for the best view...
The local school kids get the day off.
Steiny's Traditional Mettwurst.  A field day would not be complete without men wandering the grounds with giant Polish sausages draped around their necks.
