Coffee Morning

A reminder that the coffee morning is this coming Saturday 20 April in Cornhill Village Hall. This event is to raise money for the Carham parish defibrillator fund. There will be tea, coffee and hopefully some cakes, as well as a raffle, a wheel of fortune, a craft and produce table, and bric-a-brac. Donations of raffle prizes, baked goods and produce are welcome. The event begins at 10.30 and the raffle will be drawn at about 11.30. We look forward to seeing you there!

Mindrum Farm Walk

The Footpaths Group had arranged to visit Mindrum farm in December last year, but the walk had to be cancelled because of the weather. It has now been rearranged for Thursday 7 March, starting at 10 am.

This is another chance to enjoy a five-mile guided walk around this mixed organic farm with Tom Fairfax who will be talking about regenerative farming and other developments since the Footpaths Group visited in 2019. Everyone is welcome, including well-behaved dogs on leads. For more information, see the poster on our Walks page.

It would be helpful to have some idea of numbers, so if you plan to come along please email the walks organiser or send a text to 07557 211 564. We hope you’ll be able to join us!
