Surrey Group Plant Fair Breaks Records

10th May, 2022

The Surrey Group recorded record fund raising at the plant fair they organise at Denbies Wine Estate, Dorking.  A record £1,625 was taken during the day. 

The event was well attended and plant sales were swift despite some rain and a decidedly chilly wind during the last couple of hours.

Our guest nurseries also had a good day and our thanks to them and to Denbies for their continued support.

The biggest thanks of all must go to our band of volunteers that make this event possible, to everybody who helped on the stall on the day and to all that visited the sale to support us. 

A special thanks to all those people that supplied all the amazing plants.  Particularly to Wendy Bentall (3 cars full!), Claire Davitt and your chairman managed 13 crates of plants.  I don't think we have ever had so few plants to take home at the end which is  testament to our enthusiastic and knowledgable sales team and to the high quality of the plants that were grown by the group.

Thank you all and Congratulations!
