Organisers of a charity fund-raiser are promising a ‘berry’ good show as they begin the countdown to the Soft Fruit Growers Ball.
Taking place at Fingask Castle, Rait, on November 30, the ball marks the end of the fruit-growing season and brings together the farming community for a night of entertainment and fundraising.
The committee, made up of five women from across the industry, decided to hold a one-off event in 2011 and exceeded all expectations by raising £10,000 for charity.
Back by popular demand, this year’s ball is shaping up to be even bigger and better, with all 350 tickets being snapped up in February.
The event is sponsored by legal firm Thorntons, Sealed Air Ltd, Berry Gardens, Everris Ltd, Mack Multiples and Mackays Jam.
