🌻 Scarecrow Trail & Café – A Huge Thank You! 🌻
A huge thank you to everyone who helped organise, took part in, attended and supported our Scarecrow Trail and Café!
Although a team works behind the scenes to organise everything, the event simply wouldn’t happen without the wonderful support and involvement of our Kesgrave community. ❤️
A very special thank you to everyone who made a scarecrow — they were all absolutely amazing! 🎉 If you made a scarecrow, there is a thank-you card and a packet of seeds waiting for you to collect from the church porch.
And a huge well done to our winners, the Girlguiding Family and Gloria the Garden Goddess! 🏆🌻
In case you missed any of the wonderful scarecrows along the trail, here they all are! ❤️
The event was held to raise funds towards replacing our broken heating system, and thanks to your incredible generosity, the Café raised just over £650! 🎉👏
Thank you all so much for getting involved, for supporting us, and for helping to make the event such a wonderful celebration of our community.
We couldn’t have done it without you! ❤️🌻
With grateful thanks to everyone who made our Scarecrow Trail & Café so special.
