Help us to track biodiversity in the churchyard.

Spring is a perfect time to spot nesting birds, insects and flowering plants.  Please continue to jot down what you see on the Biodiversity List in the church porch.

Also, once again we will follow the recommendation of “No Mow May” in the churchyard to ensure that by the time of our Churches Count on Nature bio blitz on Saturday, 10th June we have long and medium length grass which will increase biodiversity – give it a go at home!  Leave some areas of grass – you might be surprised at what makes their home with you.

We are inviting all residents of Ridlington to join us at a defibrillator training session on Wednesday 13th May at 6:00 pm in the Village Hall. The training will take approximately an hour. So do come and join us.

Hello Everyone,

Spring looks as if it has finally arrived, so lovely to see the sunshine, time to get out the BBQ.

We will be having our next Pop up Shop on Saturday 2nd May 11:00 am to 2:00 pm.  There will be Fresh Beef, as well as the usual selection of Homemade Sausage and Burgers Fresh Bacon.  Lamb, Venison and Ready meals from the freezer.

If anyone would like to order beef, we can ask our Artisan Butcher to cut joints etc. to suit your needs.  Some cuts are very popular and sell out quickly, so please order accordingly. If you require any additional information to help choose, please don’t hesitate to contact me either by email, or text Whats App etc.

If you are unable to come on May 2nd, I will be happy to either keep chilled for you, or freeze for collection by arrangement.

I will also be making sausages this week, it will be available on Saturday 25th, I will be around between 11:00 am and 1:00 pm.  Last chance to get your 10% off topside and brisket joints of Beef.
