Prizes worth £1,500 in Monkton Elm's Garden Re-Leaf raffle


Somerset folk are being encouraged to help raise money for the children’s charity Greenfingers by entering a Garden Re-Leaf Day raffle this month at Monkton Elm Garden & Pet Centre.
                                                                                                           
Linda Petrons, Head of Fundraising at Greenfingers, said: “We are thrilled that the garden centre is supporting Garden Re-Leaf Day and hope that customers will flock to it to support their raffle.
 
“The money raised really will make a huge difference and will help us continue creating magical and therapeutic gardens for children who spend time in hospices around the UK and their families.”
 
Garden Re-Leaf Day takes place on Friday, March 18 but activities can take place throughout the week in aid of Greenfingers.
 
Andrew Pitman, Store Manager at the award-winning, independent, family-run garden centre, said: “Garden Re-Leaf Day is a fantastic initiative to mark the start of the spring gardening season. As members of the Garden Centre Association (GCA) we are encouraged to get involved as one of the main aims of the day is to raise money for Greenfingers so we are thrilled to be the hosts of this raffle.
 
“Raffle tickets, which cost £1, are available to purchase from us now and the winners will be drawn on Saturday, March 19. The winning tickets will be on display in-store and people who have entered will be encouraged to return to the store and see what they have won.”
 
“There are £1,500 worth of prizes for the winners to choose from, including an Alexander Rose garden bench worth £175 and a nest of oak tables worth £245 as well as crates of seeds, gardening tools and Sunday lunch or afternoon tea in our restaurant.”
