Plant Sale

The annual Melverley Church plant sale took place on Saturday 3rd May on a dry, partly sunny but windy morning. There was a wide variety of plants on sale and the crowds began to arrive just before 10am. Sales of tomatoes, vegetables, annual plants and perennials all sold well. Refreshments and delicious cakes were available in the church and the raffle did a roaring trade. Thank you to all who supported this fundraising event in any way.

The total made so far is approximately £1,627.80 with still some plants for sale outside the church.

The church is in need of various repairs and re decoration of the exterior of the church this year if funds can be achieved. The church relies on donations and fundraising events to cover all annual costs which this year will exceed £8000. It is increasingly difficult to achieve these costs so regular Giving to this ancient church would allow it to survive for generations to come. For ways to give, please contact the church warden on 07773321025 for details.
