    Plant sale success

    Delighted to announce that we raised £230 at the plant sale yesterday – proceeds will go to the village hall. Thanks so much for all the donations of plants and for everyone who came along.

    There are a few plants left over, we’ll leave them outside the hall door for a few days so please feel free to help yourself. If you’d like to make a donation you can drop off at Whitelaws.

    A reminder of the date for the village show which will take place on Saturday 26th August. Watch out for schedules coming through your door.
