Story

Selling beautiful, allotment-grown flower bunches for York Foodbank

Small bunch suggested donation: £3 (This pays for approximately 1/3 of a food parcel for a family for one week)

Larger bunch suggested donation: £5 (This pays for approximately 1/2 of a food parcel for a family for one week)

I have chosen to sell bunches of flowers for York Foodbank grown from our allotment again this year after the success of last year (£180 raised!!!) I'll update my Facebook and Instagram with bunches and will arrange pick ups twice a week (Sundays and Wednesdays).

About York Foodbank: we don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.
