Over the weekend of the 19th & 20th March, Paul and Rosemary Sowden are hosting an Open Garden event at Saffron Court in Chudleigh to raise funds for local charity Rainbow Living.
Saffron Court, a 1.3 acre Parkland garden with views over the Teign Valley, will be bursting with an abundance of snowdrops, primroses, daffodils and bluebells during the 2-day event.  The venue includes a children’s play area; it is accessible for those with reduced mobility and is also dog friendly.
Guests will be able to enjoy cream teas and take part in a raffle.  There will also be a plant sale, including snowdrops, primroses and tomato plants, a cake stall, and a table top sale with books, jams & chutneys, jewellery and much much more on offer.
Saffron Court, Chudleigh TQ13 0EE will be open between 12.30-4.30pm on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th March.  Tickets on the door are £3 per person or £5 for a family, with all proceeds going towards the charity’s third Rainbow House.
Ruth Airdrie from Rainbow Living said: “We are very grateful to Paul and Rosemary for hosting this open garden event, and huge thanks to all the volunteers who are helping out.  All of the money raised from the weekend will be put towards the total needed to purchase our third Rainbow House, enabling another group of young learning disabled adults to live with their peers in supported living within the local community.”
