Festival to set record for most people yodelling
A charity hopes to set up a record for the most people yodelling in unison in Somerset.
Charity School in a Bag (SIAB) is hosting its annual fundraiser event Home Farm Fest from 6-8 June for the 18th time.
As part of the festival, Yodellynne, or Lynne Nash, will be teaching yodelling to the festival goers - hoping to become the biggest group of people yodelling in unison in Somerset.
Luke Simon, Founder of School in a Bag, said: "This year is by far our biggest Home Farm Fest to date – we have sold out for the first time ever. At a time where so many festivals are folding we are clearly doing something right."

Mr Simon added: "Having extra things happening over the weekend like Owain and Lexi leaving on their world trip where they will be fundraising for SchoolBags as they go, to Yodellynne bringing something we've never had at Home Farm Fest before, all adds to the fun."
Owain and Lexi will set off on a cycle trip around the world to raise money for the charity with a fanfare on the Saturday from the festival site.
Home Farm Fest takes place from 6-8 June at Chilthorne Domer.
