Manakin Market farmers market is having a special event on Saturday, October 7th, to benefit Goochland Pet Lovers – the non-profit that supports the new $1 million Goochland County Animal Shelter that is being built this year. They have already raised over $850k, and we want to help.

There will be lots of pet adoption agencies and demonstrations, dog treat and dog related vendors, and dog support service vendors, as well as a blessing of the animals.

While there is no charge for entry to this event, you can make a donation to the Goochland Pet Lovers by check or credit credit card on their website. Visit http://www.goochlandpetlovers.com/donate.

Animal organizations are welcome to participate. Contact Lisa Dearden by phone or email for information: 804-314-9141 or manager@rvagriculture.org
