Autumn Show 2018: On Saturday 8 September the Village Hall was transformed into a wonderful sight of colours, shapes and textures with entries for the Autumn Show. There were 54 different classes to choose from, producing a broad array of flowers, plants, herbs, foliage, fruit, vegetables, cakes, jams and other goodies, of a very high standard, which demonstrated much care, skill, attention to detail and artistry from the entrants. The judge name xxxx?.. had a hard task making his decisions. The results reflect how close the final marks were, with joint awards for several cups. Click here for all results and lots of colourful photos.
As the end of the year end approaches, our final meeting for 2018 is the Annual General Meeting which will be held at 7.30pm on Thursday 6th December in Fernhurst Village Hall. All are welcome plus guests, join us for a glass of wine and some ‘nibbles’ at 7.00pm. Membership of the Horticultural Society is only £10.00 per person per year or £15.00 for joint Membership - it’s time to renew, or maybe to join us?
