Saturday 14th September 2024
Saturday is Horticultural Show day! Come and show off your home produce, flowers, baking, and handicrafts and try to win prizes and trophies! There is plenty of other entertainment of the day too so have a look below and see what's happening in the village!
Our Horticultural Show is always evolving and there's always new categories to enter in every year and each one is very competitive! Last year over 400 exhibits were from children ... which means 400 free bars of chocolate and lots of happy tummies! I'm sure we can squeeze a few more entries in though so lets try to make 2024's show weekend even bigger than this one!!!
