Hot off the press

Joanna with Chris

Chris Michell, representative of our long-standing sponsors, Brother, came to see us at Loseley to draw our 2011 raffle and June James couldn’t resist the opportunity to come and get some expert tuition for the packet labels for next year’s Seed Shop.  Once lessons were over, Chris drew the nine prize-winning tickets and joined us for sandwiches and cake (naturally).  Thank you to everyone who bought tickets and we raised just under £4300, a thousand pounds more than last year.
