PEOPLE are invited to help pick grapes at a vineyard near Topsham.

As thanks to those who help at The Pebblebed Vineyards, people can attend an end of harvest lunch at the end of October.

Owner Geoff Bowen said: "This is very much a fun and sociable event - people can come for 10 minutes or 2 hours. Children are very welcome."

The dates for picking are September 27 between 10am and 12pm and October 18 and 25 from 10am until 2pm.

Geoff added: "In the past we have seen several hundred people come and help us harvest the grapes - its just like the French films when the village turns out to help!"

Pebblebed Vineyards has a tasting cellar in Fore Street.
