Speen Village Fete
June 11th 2016 2-5pm
Speen Allotment Association always has a wonderful stall at the Speen Village Fete. Plot holders and others donate plants, seedlings, rhubarb stalks etc to fund-raise. The stall is always very popular and raises hundreds of pounds for the village residents. Monies raised are donated back to Speen organisations for the benefit of Speen residents e.g. Cherub's Mother & Toddler group.
Cliff Sells, our Chairman, is the main driving force for this stall and works tirelessly over the preceding weeks to ensure adequate produce. However, any donations of plants, volunteers to help move the plants and set up the stall in the morning, and extra hands on the afternoon are always very welcome.

IN 2014, the stall raised over £300 for the fete. Everything sold had been grown by and donated to the fete by our members.
All money raised at the fete gets ploughed back into the community of Speen and the money raised by the plant stall will go a good way to helping finance the annual Speen Pensioners Christmas Dinner, a wonderful event that the fete committee organise every year and which caters for 90 or so Speen pensioners. A very popular event indeed!
