Green-fingered enthusiasts are once again being called upon to enter the annual Great St. Florence Potato Challenge.

Pre-registration opened on February 1, and runs until Saturday, February 26, for participants to enter the Challenge for £5 (child) or £10 (adult) per bucket and seed potatoes.

All proceeds are in aid of St. Florence Village Church. Potatoes and buckets will be available to collect from St. Florence Church on Saturday, March 5, between 9 and 11 am.
