Mortimer Scarecrow Trail
Eagerly awaited every year since its start in 2010, The MVP Scarecrow Trail is one of the MVP major events, scheduled during the school autumn half-term break.
With between 25 and 35 Scarecrows spread right across the whole of the village, the fame of this event has spread far and wide, with families visiting the village to “Walk the Trail” every year.
The MVP STORY
MVP was formed in 2008/2009 by a group of villagers wanting to fulfil some of the requests expressed by the village in the second Parish Plan – more things going on locally for young families, more things going on locally for the older generation, and better communications, for example. You can see the Parish Plan on the SMPC website with the actions we set off to try and do.
