Youngsters who attend Stepping Stones' Pre-School brought tinned food and a variety of fresh produce, including pumpkins, sweetcorn and vegetables, to the service at Didcot Baptist Church.

The Rev Mark Wickenden, pre-school president, explained the meaning of harvest through the tale of a year in the life of a fictional Farmer Fred.

Playgroup leader Kathy Marshall said: "All the food will be donated to elderly people attending Barnes Close Community Centre."
