Stunning photographs of the Wychwood landscapes will form one of the main attractions of the Forest Fayre in Leafield on Sunday, September 2.
Last year the Friends of the Wychwood Project staged their first fayre in Combe to mark the launch of the 37-mile Wychwood Way.
The photographic competition attracted 70 entries in three categories and was judged by Oxford Mail reporter Suzanne Huband.
This year's fayre will be held in the village hall at Leafield and on the playing field starting at 12 noon.
Among the attractions will be Morris dancing, county crafts, farmers' market, shooting gallery, a beer tent and refreshments.
Youngsters can bring along their teddies to take part in a parachuting teddy event - or buy or hire one on the day.
In the evening there will be a barn dance starting at 6pm in conjunction with Witney Folk Dance Group.
The Wychwood Project aims to raise awareness of the history and identity of the Wychwood Forest and conserve and restore the special character of the landscape.
The original Wychwood fayres are thought to have started in the late 1700s and increased in size until up to 50,000 people attended in 1853 when special trains were put on to bring people from Oxford and London to Charlbury.
The last fair was held in 1856 when there were so many cases of drunkenness and bad behaviour that the forest ranger, Lord Churchill, banned the event.
