Local MP Attends ‘Garden Village’ Open Day

Banff & Buchan MP Eilidh Whiteford was one of the many visitors to yesterday’s Fordyce Open Village Day.

The now annual event drew visitors from far and wide to admire the gardens which are opened to the public by local householders to raise funds for the Community Association.

Commenting, Eilidh said:

“The organising committee of Fordyce Community Association deserve to be complimented on another successful event.

“Judging by the numbers of people who turned out to visit the gardens and have afternoon tea at the village hall, it seems the event is growing in popularity as word spreads about the beautiful gardens which are made available to the public on the Open Village Day.

“It is a community event in every sense and everyone involved can be very proud of their efforts today.”
