Winter Fayre at Spitalfields City Farm

If fighting hordes of high street crowds isn't your thing Spitalfields City Farm has a more palatable alternative. The farm will be filled with stalls selling handmade cards and non-mass-produced presents. There’ll also be carol singing, mulled wine, games and a raffle with prizes from the likes of The Science Museum and Ottolenghi Spitalfields. There's no manger but donkeys Derek and Bayleaf will be offering rides.
