Stoke Fleming Christmas Tree Festival

It's that time of year again, and Stoke Fleming is celebrating Christmas with its 10th Christmas Tree Festival.

This popular  annual event is  in held in St. Peter’s Church, Stoke Fleming from  December 9th - 11th, with all money raised to go to the Church and Rowcroft Hospice.

St Peter's is open 10am and 6pm and 10am on Sunday finishing with a carol service at 5pm.




Entrance to the Church is free, and there will be a welcome glass of mulled wine for all  and refreshments on Saturday.

The trees are kindly supplied at a discounted cost by Gardentime, with local clubs, schools and organisations buying a tree each and decorating them with a different theme.







There are usually between fifty and sixty trees, and Stoke Lodge Hotel's theme this year is 'Starry Night'

 
There is also a 'Spot The Oddity' on each tree so keep your eyes peeled for anything untoward lurking in those fragrant pine branches..!



  


The Green Dragon Inn (opposite the Church) will as usual be hosting the ever-popular Christmas Fete on Saturday afternoon, so come along and enjoy the festive fun - everyone is welcome!
