Woodend Children’s Festival Inc. is a community-based, non-profit organisation that seeks to inspire, engage and educate children through providing access and exposure to many and varied art forms. The inaugural festival to be staged on Sunday 27 July 2014.

As part of the festival, a Landcare activity Best Nest, is being led by Krista Patterson-Majoor and Sam Ford. (Many of you will know of Krista through her roles with Connecting Country.) The following description of Best Nest is from the festival program:

The Best Nest is an interactive space that seeks to create and celebrate the hidden homes of our fine-feathered friends. It offers little people and big people an opportunity to work together to construct a nest made from natural and recycled materials. “I love my house, I love my nest, in all the world, my nest is best” sings the Mother Bird in the book The Best Nest. We invite you to join us to investigate and explore what makes The Best Nest.
