More than £7,000 has been raised in memory of popular farm shop owner Steve Croot, who ran Croots Farm Shop near Duffield in Derbyshire with his wife Kay.
Steve died suddenly on 15th August, and his family launched a crowdfunding appeal to raise money to buy two defibrillators.
The appeal very quickly exceeded its target – allowing for a generous donation to also be made to Derbyshire Children’s Holiday Centre, which Steve had supported for many years, and the local St Alkmund’s Church in Duffield.
Summer might be over, but there's still plenty of events coming up at the Barn over the next few weeks - we hope you'll be able to join us for some of the following talks and activities.
Remember to head to our website for further details on all of these and much more.
