Annual Flower & Produce Show

10th September 2022 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.

  • Memorial Hall
  • Brown's Lane
  • Charlbury

Following on from the success of the Spring Show 2022 with wonderful new entries, we want to encourage all gardeners, including children, to have a go at entering flowers, vegetables and produce for a bumper Annual Show in the Memorial Hall this autumn.

There has been some sort of horticultural show in Charlbury since the late 1800’s and so, in this historic year, we hope that you will help us to continue this tradition. For those of you who came to the Spring Show, we hope you feel very confident in entering an exhibit. It really is fun and very easy. So please look at the schedule below and plan what you might exhibit this year.

Shows are open to everyone, members and non-members!

At the show, anyone joining the Garden Society for 2023 will be given free membership for the rest of 2022.

CHILDREN'S CORNER

Our children are the gardeners of the future.

The children's classes, therefore, include at least one aspect of 'growing', plus some craft or cookery.

Some entries will need to be planned for or prepared well in advance!

There will be two age groups for judging the children's categories: 4-7 years; and 8-12 years.
