Open Garden Event to raise money for the Mercy Ships
Pat Casey has spent the last 50 years of her life on a sheep property outside Peterborough with her husband John, raising 4 children. She moved to Clare full- time a couple of years ago.
I recently met her at SACWA event and heard about her upcoming open garden which she is pulling together to help raise money for the mercy ships. Since meeting Pat, I have asked a lot of people whether they know about the mercy ships? Most people don’t. I didn’t. It’s fascinating. Enjoy her story.
