Thanks to anyone who came to the 58th annual show. And to the small dedicated band of committee members and volunteers who made it happen. We'd a good turn out again despite (or even inspite) the lousy weather. Unfortunately the weather over last month/s affected the number of exhibits, especially the flowers. But everyone did their best and showed their finest. We saw quite a few familiar faces not seen for ages. And several visitors enthused up to enter next year - brilliant.

Have you seen or heard about The Allotment Project at Accrington Market Hall? Just thought your group may be interested. And if there are any budding photographers you can enter a competition too...see Whats On In Lancashire | Family Days Out | Art Galleries & Museums for details.
