Thank you to everyone who came along to our Flower & Produce Show on 29th July, to all those that entered and to all those that supported us to enable us to bring back the Show – a great day and a wonderful atmosphere
Actress Anna Calder-Marshall helped to open the revival of the Flower & Produce Show in Woodchurch on 29th July.
The show started 136 years ago and was always an important event in Woodchurch, lasting until 2019.
Linda Crew from Woodchurch Cottage Flowers and Woodchurch in Bloom volunteers decided to bring the popular show back this year. Organisers were delighted to receive over 350 entries for a range of categories: Flowers, Floral Art, Vegetables & Fruit, Home Produce, Crafts and Photography with the addition of two children’s classes to help make the event an inclusive one.
While the judges were deciding on the winners, villagers enjoyed tea, coffee and home-made cakes ‘on the lawn’. A variety of traditional stalls and displays could be found on the village green, including a performance by the Woodchurch Morris Men.
As in 1889, the proceeds from the Show are going to All Saints Church in Woodchurch.
The next Flower & Produce Show will be back in 2025!
