Local bell-ringers and local cheese, jam and chutney tastings will feature when Golden Acres garden centre at West Parley hosts its annual pre-Christmas open evening on Tuesday November 29.
Meanwhile a children’s puppet show and the Three legged Cross First School choir will join the bell-ringers at John Browns garden centre, at its event on Tuesday Dec 6.
During the evenings staff will give away mulled wine and mince pies and there will be double customer bonus points, free prize draws to win garden centre vouchers, and special meal deals served in the cafe.
Simon Edwards, director of the Golden Acres group which owns both centres, said: “It’s so easy to do your Christmas shopping at our centres, with free parking, no crowds, no pressure – and always something a little bit different for you to find for your friends and family.”
The events will take place from 5.30pm to 8pm. There will also be displays of Christmas trees, decorations and gifts, with free delivery of Christmas trees bought on the night.
