Field Day has a dedicated village green area. Inspired by summer sports days and country fetes - Village Mentality's Village Green hosts side-stalls and activities throughout the daytime, ranging from sack-racing to splat-the-rat to the ' eat as many carrots as you can ' contest.
You can try your luck on the tombola, crack a few nuts on the coconut shy, join Pom Pom International in making pompoms for world peace - or just sit on some hay bales and stuff your face with homemade cake! There is always also a Tug O' War where some of the bands and artists appearing at the festival will do battle with only along piece of rope for weaponry. Its a chance to have fun and as the country saying goes 'be like an ant in the days of summer.'
If you're dying to have a stall or activity that you think would be perfect for the Village Green then email: villagementality@googlemail.com
