Despite the recent heavy rains and wind, Gerard McGrath is confident that his field will be fully in bloom
A Co Down farmer is throwing open his land to visitors in aid of two charities after he planted half a million sunflower seeds.
This year, Gerard planted a range of sunflowers on a field at his farm on the Loughinisland Road, but the majority of them will be the traditional yellow ones loved by all. Eva said that the field would be open to visitors every weekend until September 10 and that local Marie Curie staff would be attending to support the fundraising effort. The opening times for the sunflower field are from 12 noon to evening.
“We wish Gerard and his family all the best with this wonderful effort and thank him in recognising our charity after we nursed three of his close family members,” said Clare.
