Congratulations Murrie 🥂🥳

Our amazing Publican is celebrating 20 years in charge of the Green Tree in Tudhoe 💪

What's the key to running a successful pub for all those years?

🗨️ "It takes a massive amount of effort to stay current, remain profitable and retain staff but we’ve done that by listening. I absolutely adore this pub; I love everything about it from the people to the building itself and I’m not the only one because we have three staff members that have been with us since the day I joined!” 👏

Well done Murrie and everyone at the Green Tree! 🍍

Would you take a look at that! 😮

📍The Farmers Arms, Newquay

Czech artist Kaca Thomasini has reimagined a mural which had been lost to the passing of time, and the good ol' British weather. 🌦️

Veteran Publican Stephen, who runs the pub with his wife Karen and son Matthew is over the moon with the painting: "The response has been overwhelming and become a big talking point. It really brightens up the place and we couldn’t be happier.” 🐝

The inclusion of the butterfly 🦋 on the mural is symbolic of the pub being part of Punch's Pollinator Pubs partnership with the Eden Project. More on this can be found on our website >>> www.punchpubs.com/sustainability/
