It WAS held for two years, 2013 and 2012 only. Steve and his team put on a fantastic, informal working weekend but then, through no fault of theirs, it was decided to give it a rest for a while. There are photos taken and posted on here from 2012 in the show reports section. Try searching 'Harvest Home'

No I heard a advert on the radio and rang them up seeing if they wanted one.

Scooby, last years was sadly the last, after some complaints it was decided to quit while they were ahead. A great shame.
We can only hope someone else will arrange a similar do some where in Cornwall.

Was there more people that liked it than complained?....

Yes, for sure!!

Then why did they bow down to the minority that complained?! There's too much of this going on, stopping whole events because one or two busybodys like the sound of there own voices. If they don't like it, don't go!

Crikey Steve, a Cornishman falling foul of the law, shades of Jamaica Inn and all that!
