The Plant Sales

The Plant Sale was on Saturday 21 May 2022 from 10am.

The plants on sale are all grown locally to Fowlis Wester and therefore are appropriate to the climate of Strathearn. They range from bedding, vegetables, flowers and shrubs to more unusual plants, grown by our intrepid group of plantswomen who can advise on what grows where and when. Socially, the event is a great focus for friends, families and people new to the area to come and meet while sampling the fare of tea and buns - delicious scones, jam and biscuits, usually. 

The funds raised are usually donated to the maintenance and upkeep of the hall; in 2020 during covid lockdown nothing happened and the hall was grateful for a PKC grant to keep such as the hall afloat until able to resume holding events to raise funds. In 2021, in a window of lockdown, it went ahead with the majority of funds being donated in support of the British Heart Foundation (BHF) and the Scottish Charity Air Ambulance (SCAA). In 2022 the funds will again be needed for hall maintenance. Each year since we continue to split the plant sale proceeds 50/50 with a local medical based charity.
