A FREE two-day food festival takes place at Walton Hall this weekend.

Cheshire Food Festival will feature more than 50 different traders.

Artisan food producers and street food vendors will be busy making, preserving, baking and packing, jams, cakes, cheese, chocolates and lots of other tasty treats.

Along with food and drink producers there will be chef demonstrations, live music and kids entertainment on Saturday and Sunday.

Dan Maycock, one of the organisers said: "We have got a great mix of local produce and best of British, coming from further afield.

"On the hot food front you will be able to try anything from traditional hog roast to Thai dishes, so hopefully something for all tastes."

He said there promises to be a family friendly atmosphere with lots to see and do at the free event.
