Charity Plant Sale: Sunday 19th May, 1-5pm

Our Charity of the Year committee are organising a Plant Sale in aid of ‘Every Drop Counts’ on Sunday 19th May (Pentecost Sunday), 1.00 – 5.00pm in the Churchyard.

Can you support us in either of the following ways, (or ideally both!)?

Could you bring along some plants to sell?

They can be any sort of plant of any size – flowers, vegetables or herbs. Cuttings or seedlings, large or small, anything you can spare!

Please bring plant donations to church on the morning of the sale, or contact us if you need someone to collect them or to drop them off earlier.

Could you come along to buy some plants?

Our congregation and young people have been busy growing seeds since Easter Sunday, and we hope there will be a wide variety of plants to buy.

There will be no fixed prices – donations towards our Charity of the Year, by card or cash.

Our Charity of the Year, ‘Every Drop Counts‘ will help communities in Teustepe in Nicaragua to grow crops in a difficult climate. We are aiming to raise £10,000 to help them install water-capture systems, provide training and drought-resistant crops to 7 rural communities.

Thank you for your generous support!
