2008 ANNUAL SUMMER SHOW
Saturday 16 August 2008
Addingham Memorial Hall
14:00 - 16:00
It's that time of the year again!
Forget the bling of Chelsea or the pomp of Hampton Court, nothing sums up the magic of growing your own produce than our show. Whether your friut and vegetables comes from a walled garden or just a window box, we invite you and your best brassicas, finest flowers and most delicious jams to take part in one of Wharfedale's finest gardening extravaganzas.
Despite another dismal summer (what has happened to Global Warming???) we are looking forward to some top quality entries from our perenial exhibitors and we extend a very warm welcome in particular to anyone considering entering for the first time.
