Fingers crossed in 5 weeks’ time the Village Hall will be awash with daffodils and other Spring flowers. Apart from the customary Cut Flowers, Pot Plants and Vegetable sections there are a number of other classes that would suit most peoples’ tastes and abilities. The main Floral Art title is “Over The Rainbow” and our men only title is “Royal Air Force 100th Anniversary” - so why not have a go? There is a good selection of classes in the Domestic Section including a “Beatrix Potter Tea Party” and a Carrot Cake. Also some interesting items in the Handicraft, Photographic and Young Gardeners sections all of which you will find in your Show Schedule. Please try to send your entry form to the Show Secretary by Tuesday 3rd April as there is a lot of work to do in the days leading up to the Show.
