South Moreton Harvest Festival – Sunday 12th October

The South Moreton Harvest Festival Service will take place next Sunday (12th October) at 10.30 am.

Harvest gifts are more than welcome.  These can either be fruit of vegetables presented in a basket / box or alternatively non perishable food (at least six months before use by date).  Perishables will be auctioned, with any money raised to be given to the food bank along with the non perishables.

There will something for all ages (especially the children) with refreshments afterwards so do please come along as we would love to see as many of you as possible.

Hope to see you then and thank you so much to all those who came along and supported the Safari Supper last weekend.

As I write this, we are preparing for the Thame Fair and the Flying Pig Festival at Shrivenham.
