Thank you for the Harvest

With uplifting songs plus thoughtful and funny poems our community’s celebration of this year’s harvest was enjoyed on Sunday 11 October by those people present, 23 adults and one child.

With contributions from local farmers and food producers (Glovers Meadow Farm, New Barn Farm & Pumpkin Paradise), and generous gifts from residents we were able to raise £100 for Farming Community Network, £51 for St. Mark’s and we were able to give Dodford Children’s Farm food for their visiting children/families, and feed for their animals.

Thanks to everyone for their kind offerings, to Margaret Herbert (Farming Community Network) for a very interesting presentation, and to Corrine, Anne & Team for the fantastic displays, showcasing farming and autumn countryside.  Thanks also to Kevin, Pam & Trevor for taking the donated food & feed to Dodford Children’s Farm.THE FARMING COMMUNITY NETWORK is a voluntary organisation & charity that supports farmers and families within the farming community.   If you are a farmer/member of our farming community, and are struggling, need to offload to another farmer, give them a call, telephone 03000 111 999.
