Bryan Hawkes worked as a butcher at the farm shop for four years. In his memory, staff put on the fundraiser, which included a raffle, tombola, special cakes and much more.
The event raised £1,621 for Prostate Cancer UK, a charity which supports men who have been diagnosed, and funds research for a cure.
Retail director Ian Larkins said: “I was really impressed by the support from customers, staff and suppliers on the day. Bryan was a very valued member of the team and it was great seeing everyone get involved.”
Organisers Sophie Young and Kimberley Welsh added: “Thank you to all who supported us – we had an amazing day raising lots of money for a great cause and with Bryan in our memories.”
