Re: Festival of Apples, Louth Lincolnshire 14th October
Local media seem to have to be spoonfed these days.. provide them with the story and images and it might get run.
Facebook pages need a bit of pimping.. if everyone involved advertises the event FB page in their signature on *every* forum they are on (not just the self-sufficiency/allotment ones) that should get a bit of coverage, a few more clicks and likes. Local event and information websites are often desperate for something to report that's new/current. Make an "announcement" every couple of days (it has to be something different every time - how about some descriptions of local heritage apple varieties? - maybe invent the fictitious Louth Lout cider apple and start a quest to find a specimen of this long lost variety..) and share each one with the local newspaper's FB page.
