Plant Sale Clearance @ The Fox until Wednesday

North Luffenham Garden Club enjoyed a busy Plant Sale yesterday but we have some surplus stock of tomato & veg plants, houseplants and even some perennials from the borders of Burghley House 😉

So do drop by, have a look and pick up some real bargains – ignore the price tickets, just leave a donation in the red pillar box under the Pagoda.
Everything must go by Wednesday so tell your friends & family… and afterwards enjoy some cooling refreshment at the bar of your host Jason!

It’s certainly not too late to plant those tomatoes…

Christmas Greetings to Friends & Neighbours… via our very own Festive Tree in North Luffenham Church

Leave a reply

Last year the Parish Church was given a wonderful large wooden Christmas Tree made by Men & Women in Sheds, Rutland. This year we would like to start a Community Christmas Card Scheme for the residents of North Luffenham whilst raising funds for the Church & making our parishioners’ lives simpler.

To share festive greetings with your friends & neighbours in the village, please drop your Christmas card, along with your donation for the Church to Dove Cottage, 4 Church Street, North Luffenham before 22nd December (date of our Carol Service).

Your cards will be displayed on our unique wooden Christmas tree in the porch of the Church which will be specially lit for the occasion.

Thank you for joining in our new village ‘tradition’ 🎄
