Annual Flower & Produce Show

Sadly, the Annual FLower and Produce Show 2021 is now cancelled.

11th September 2021 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.

  • Memorial Hall
  • Brown's Lane
  • Charlbury

CANCELLATION:

It is with regret that we announce the cancellation of the Annual Flower and Produce Show. This decision was based on the Covid risk assessment which showed that the mitigating actions available could not guarantee everyone’s safety.

It is a great disappointment which many of you will share but we look forward even more to the Show next year.

If you wish to show your entries then Enstone Horticultural Society’s Show is on 4th September and anyone who would like to submit is welcomed.

Visit their website for more info and the schedule: https://enstoneparish.org/horticultural-society/ or email philipshaw@cpshaw.com or phone 01608 811378. The show is open to everyone.

It is very much hoped that this will be the last disruption caused by the Covid pandemic and that the Garden Society can resume normal activities this Autumn.

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.
