If you are in the area this wekend, can I recommend a visit to this?
http://www.dalesfestivaloffood.org/Held every year, loads of food stalls, live bands (brass and jazz usually), a fun fair for the kids and a damned good day out.
We make a day of it by driving to Leeming, getting on the Wensleydale Railway train to Layburn then walking the last bit to the festival.
