Our annual Church Flower Festival, which is held every September has been a feature of the Church landscape in Finedon for many decades. Our 2023 flower festival, themed around ‘Festivals’ raised over £2,800 for church funds.
Local Businesses, Community Groups, Individuals, Representatives from other Churches and Groups within our own Congregation all come together with their displays centred around a particular theme. Previous themes include Festivals, The Life of Queen Elizabeth II, Things to be Thankful For, Musicals and many more.
At an open meeting on Monday 22nd April the theme for our 2024 Flower Festival was unveiled!
This years theme is “A World of Art”.
Our Flower Festival will take place on Friday 13th, Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th September 2024. Keep your eyes peeled with more information to follow.
If you would like to take part and create your own display please speak to Christine Chapman, or another member of the committee. If you would like to volunteer in another way, whether that be stewarding, manning a stall or baking cakes for the tea tent, please get in touch!
We look forward to welcoming everyone for what looks to be another spectacular festival.
Some images from the last festival can be seen below. Thank you to all those who took part in making the weekend such a success.
