The plant sale starts at 5.30pm and then there’s plenty of activity throughout the evening including Gardeners’ Question Time, stalls with garden bric-a-brac, hot food, a well stocked bar and a fun quiz to test your bird knowledge.
Gidding Gobblers Café is open this Sunday 5th May from 10am until 2pm in Great Gidding Village Hall.
It’s a great opportunity for villagers to meet up with friends, neighbours and visitors and have a chat over coffee, cake and Sunday papers. We hope you can join us this week.
We look forward to welcoming you!
Our next opening will be on Sunday 9th June.
FRIDAY, 10 MAY, Great Gidding Village Hall
We hope everyone will find time to visit and take advantage of some bargains just in time for summer. Not only will there be plenty of plants for sale, you can also browse a number of stalls, including unique handmade metal garden ornaments from local maker, Ped Baker, and a horticultural bric a brac stall. You can bring along your garden questions to put to Radio Cambridgeshire’s expert gardener, Tony Arnold or get some handy hints on how to plant your pots and hanging baskets. There’ll also be a garden-themed raffle and, for the children, a bird quiz with a very special prize!
With a Barbecue and a Bar to help you as you browse, the evening of May 10th promises to be a really convivial and fun event.
Entry is free. Doors open at 5.30p.m.
Don’t throw them away! We would love to ‘repurpose’ them for our garden bric à brac stall at the Plant Sale.
We’re looking for unusual items to use as planters (baskets, chimney pots, old boots, chamber pots, etc), as well as any decorative planters you no longer need or like, or anything else with a horticultural theme (garden ornaments, bird feeders, bird boxes, garden lights, gardening books) …anything at all that might make an interesting addition to someone else’s garden.
All sales on the evening will help to swell the funds for Jubilee Woods projects.
Let your imagination run riot!
You can either deliver to The Village Shop or call 01832 293240 and we’ll be happy to collect.
…so much more!
Be sure to save the date, Friday 10th May 2019, for an evening filled with a plethora of plants all for sale, barbeque and bar, planting demonstrations, our very own Gardeners’ Question Time with Radio Cambridgeshire regular Tony Arnold, bird quizzes featuring well-known artist Carry Ackroyd’s beautiful bird paintings, plus plenty of gardening and wildlife information, hints and tips….
It’s going to be fun for all the family!
When: Friday 10th May 2019, from 5pm onwards
Where: Gt Gidding Village Hall
What’s it all for: Jubilee Wood Projects to encourage us all to enjoy the wood – including a proposed bird hide, information centre, composting toilet…
