Far Forest Countryside Show 2018 Horticultural Show
Dear Exhibitors, Enclosed you will find the schedule for the Horticultural Show at the 2018 Far Forest Countryside Show. Following the successful theming of the show in 2016 & 2017 we are this year using Roald Dahl’s characters for a special item in each category and for the Home and Garden Theatre theme. We have some new classes in the schedule along with some old favourites. We also have an exciting programme for the Home and Garden Theatre, sponsored by Wyre Hire at Bill White Nurseries, in the Horticulture Marquee. The show is a great opportunity to show off your gardening and homecraft skills and pick up gardening, local craft and cookery tips on both days. Also a special opportunity to meet John Challice from TV’s Only Fools and Horses and The Green, Green, Grass book signing Sunday. It is Free to Enter Exhibits so there’s no excuse for not entering, open to all age groups. You can also enter online www.WyreHire.co.uk/FarForestShow and we have an award for the maximum points gained by a 13 to 18 year old. We look forward to seeing you at the show and wish you luck with your entries.
