After its popularity last year, the Hospice will also be serving homemade cream tea to enjoy in their beautiful gardens.

Caroline Swindin, Corporate & Community Lead for St Barnabas Hospice, said: “Our annual Plant Sales are always extremely popular and we’re looking forward to welcoming members of the public back to Lincoln and Gainsborough this year.

“Hopefully the weather stays nice for us.”

St Barnabas would appreciate any plant donations for these events, so get in contact if you would like to help. Caroline said: “The Plant Sales wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of local people and garden centres donating plants to support the event.

“We are appealing to local businesses, garden centres and plant nurseries to donate plants for us to sell on the day.
