Flower Shows
2024 Summer Flower Show
On Saturday 23 June we held our Summer Flower show in the village hall with plenty of exhibits that were enjoyed in the afternoon by the many members, friends and family. It was very pleasing to see so many children’s entries as well as entries from the Brownies, Rainbows, and Bidborough School Nursery and Class 1.
Thanks for everyone that entered as well as Colin Barber for co-ordinating the event with the Committee.
For those that missed the show this page shows the results and a selection of photos showing the colourful displays and exhibits of the day.
