FARMINGTON — Robin’s Flower Pot, Greenhouses and Landscape Nursery will host a Ladies’ Night Out fundraiser for Double B Equine Rescue from 5 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, July 18, on the Webster Road.

Double B Equine Rescue in Industry, owned by Brenda and Linwood Green, needs help. According to Mrs. Green, much of the rescue’s hay money was spent on vet bills this year.

“This fundraiser couldn’t have come at a better time,” Mrs. Green said. “Although some hay has been donated and coming soon, the barn is currently empty. We lost three of our older horses this year and two needed surgery. We have four more horses coming in next week. That brings us to 20 horses.”

Double B Equine Rescue rescues horses who were state and town seized, surrendered, neglected, physically abused and abandoned by previous owners. Once rehabilitated, the horses are available for adoption.

Donation is $20 for three hours of entertainment and refreshments. There will be line dance instruction with Louie Moniz Jr. at 6 p.m., Middle Eastern dance with Anabee Beal, chocolate from The Chocolate Shoppe, etc.’s chocolate fountain, a wine tasting with the folks from Ron’s Market and gelato tasting with Wicked Gelato.

Pamper yourself with a massage by Conscious Kneads Body Work and Massage, a tarot reading, a massage or skin care instruction from End of the Rainbow, a health screening and in body test with the Body Analyzer from the Healthy Community Coalition, a Perfectly Polished manicure, a Mary Kay sampling or learn about essential oils with Christine Poulson. There will also be a photo booth brought by Sweet Zinnias Photography.

Twenty percent of purchases that night from Robin’s Flower Pot will go to Double B Equine Rescue. Raffles will also be held.

Brenda Green will be there with information about her horses and will have T-shirts and other items for sale. The event will be held rain or shine. For more details visit www.mainehorserescue.com or robinsflowerpot.com.
