One of the fund raising activities Thornbury in Bloom has each year is a plant stall - but what they need are PLANTS TO SELL!
They rely on donations and could do with rather more than they have had for the last few years - so while you are sowing seeds, transplanting, taking cuttings etc please bear them in mind and do a few spares - especially if you have some more unusual plants.
For advice on what to do with your donations, call Sue on 01454 419350. Then all you have to do is to go along and see what other people have donated and what you could buy!
