Witham Donated to LRSN For The County Harvest Festival

In October, we were proud to assist the Lincolnshire Rural Support Network at The County Harvest Festival, at Lincoln Cathedral, by donating some amazing Witham themed cupcakes. The service was a celebration of Lincolnshire’s wonderful farming and horticultural industries and the variety and quality of produce grown and reared in the county.

The vegetable produce was donated by various farming companies from within the county, and it all went to the Lincoln Food Larder after the event. There were approximately 150 people in attendance at the service, including Toby Dennis, Lord Lieutenant of Lincolnshire. Members of the farming community offered baskets of produce to the alter, while the young farmers club members read out about what was currently happening in the world farming community. The service was followed by refreshments, including Witham’s yummy cakes, (thank you Good Little Party Food) served in the chapter house. Donations given on the day were split between LRSN, Lincs YFC and LRAC (Lincolnshire Rural Activity Centre).

The LRSN continues to be supported by Witham in many other ways. We have nominated them to receive a charitable grant donation available from the RWHA, and Ali Bottom – Witham Marketing Director, also helped with a business strategy day, hosting the Chair, employed staff and support workers for a day at Witham HQ.
