Apthorpe Farm Market Place Invites You To The Artists/Growers Charity Auction Night

Come along for a funfilled night on Friday 23rd May to raise all important funds for children suffering from Heart Disease (Fundraising for Heartkids Qld). Our local artists & growers have kindly donated a piece of their work or produce and they will be auctioned off by well known local Elders Real Estate Agent Ashley North.

Toowoomba Home brewers are coming to keep the boys happy and some nice wine from Gowan Brae Estate at Inglewood for the ladies and some bubbly if you need it.  I am overwhelmed at the things that have been donated , we have a range of paintings from local artists, massages, facials, cookbooks, soaps, quilts, just to name a few, some special slaves will appear and also some mystery auction items, craftwork, fresh produce and gourmet goodies for auction all kindly donated by our local residents. Look what we have to auction, a lovely 2 year old bull (belted galloway called ” Pinch & Punch”) how cute a good lawnmower kindly donated by Ben Somerset and his family at Geham.

We will have complimentary wine, beer & softdrinks and you can purchase hot soup and ribbon sandwiches for your dinner. Kids can enjoy a sausage sizzle, lollies and face painting while mum and dad can enjoy music kindly performed by local artists Mosaic (the Hobson Family).
We would not only like to introduce you to our local artists but invite you to explore our new shop”Apthorpe Farm Market Place”. We stock a range of local and Australian produce, we have a fabulous range of local giftware, paintings, craftwork, we have a wonderful local lady Jess who does Thai Massage and come and see Fiona’s creations of beautiful handmade girls clothing, crocheted hats, scarves, and her handmade roses that can be
ordered for races, weddings etc…

Purchases can be made on the night or you can just explore and come back with all of your friends at a later date.
If you are a business that would like to donate any items for our Auction we would gladly appreciate it. Items can be dropped in at the store at 10511 New England Highway, Highfields (Red house near Highfields Road traffic lights).

Our baby son William who we lost at six weeks was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. Heartkids is a charity very close to my heart and our shop is a way of me giving something back to those who helped us when we needed it. I would like you all to join us at Apthorpe Farm Market Place. I appreciate your support and look forward to meeting you all on the night!
