VISITORS flocked to the Vern, Marden to enjoy the British Red Cross's 'Great Spring Gardening Event.'
Despite ominous rain clouds the weather held, enabling people to enjoy the glorious surroundings. Delicious home made food was served throughout the day, and a wide range of plants and other garden and home related items were on sale from the 53 stalls.
The event raised in excess of £17,500 for local funds and naturally organisers could not be more pleased. Sue Burleigh, Red Cross fundraiser for Herefordshire said: 'We are absolutely delighted wit the results. Everyone involved with the event worked incredibly hard, it's a wonderful reflection on the commitment of our fund-raising volunteers. This money will help us to continue providing vital services to the people of Herefordshire.'
