It's Showtime !

This was the second year running that we have entered our produce in the Farncombe Village Show.

Last year our Cara potatoes won first prize. This year only half a row has been lifted, so there was only a limited amount of spuds to choose from and we were pleased to win Second Prize. We also entered five of the Desiree potatoes, but they didn't win any prizes.

We entered both Red Baron and Setton varieties in the Onions Over 250g Class. As you can see, the Setton's won Second Prize. It was a shame that the Red Baron bulbs weighed in at just over 250g, because they could have won a prize in the lower weight class.

The Galina tomatoes from our garden won Third Prize in the Cherry Tomato Class :

In addition, Heather gained a Second Prize for her scones and a Most Commended for her themed flower arrangement 'Bouquet of Barbed Wire'.

Heather also entered flowers arranged in an enamel watering can. They looked really good, but were dismissed by the judges for not being arranged in a vase !
