The Oak Fair

The Oak Fair is a celebration of the countryside, conservation, woodland, timber, traditional craft, rural history and Dorset. ​ As our little fair has grown over the years we have introduced something for everybody whether you are a countryside & conservation enthusiast, a shopaholic, a craftsman, a foodie or you just want to try your hand at throwing an axe! ​ We have over 200 exhibitors made up of stalls selling everything from homeware & jewellery to entire sheds and wood burning stoves, a host of traditional craft demonstrations, big machinery shows, conservation charities and an array of local foodies with a beer tent, cider tent and gin bar! ​ In our arenas we hold big displays including The British Heavy Horse Logger's team and falconry and there are lots of hands on activities including pole climbing, archery and tree climbing to get involved in. ​ There is also a special free children's area which includes entertainment and workshops.
