RESIDENTS have been invited to pick up a free sunflower in Newquay to help spread a bit of sunshine in the community.

Various sunflowers will be available during Sunflower Day being held at the Big Farmers Market Killacourt on Saturday, May 2.

Andrew Robey said: “Like Sunflowers? Want a free one? Come and join Sunflower Day.

“Why? I love growing green stuff and it’s fun to pass it on.

“The concept is simple. Grow the sunflower and if you choose, save the sunflower seeds, grow some next year, pass on a sunflower to someone else. The cycle repeats! If you want to join the giving of sunflowers this year, get some in pots soon and you’ll be grand for May.

“Geddon growing and join the sunflower revolution.”
