The long tables in Fowlmere Village Hall were bright with colourful displays of lovely flowers and foliage, fruits and vegetables. There were tables crowded with jars of jams, jellies and chutneys, and home baking. The handicraft table was full of a variety of creations: knitted, sewn, crocheted, painted and worked in wood. Photographers had put up lovely shots of nature, water and days out. The children exhibited very imaginative miniature gardens, animals made of vegetables and intricately decorated biscuits.<\/p>\n<p>After judging in the morning, visitors arrived at 2pm to leisurely admire the exhibits, enjoy a cup and tea and cake, visit the plant stall, or take their chances on the tombola and raffle.<\/p>\n<p>At 4pm, Rosemary Jones, Club Chair, thanked all those involved in putting on such a successful Show. The Reverend David Lee, Rector of the Four Church Benefice, presented trophies and certificates to the winners of each section. The highest award, the Royal Horticultural Society Banksian Medal, was awarded to David Warboys, overall winner in the horticultural classes. Barry Jones won the Fowlmere Cup for achieving the most points overall. The best exhibit in the whole Show were some amazing dahlias grown by Keith Goodwin who took the Farley Cup.<\/p>\n<p>The day ended with the raffle results, and a lively auction of jams and cakes, flowers and vegetables. It was a very happy and enjoyable day for all concerned.<\/p>\n<p>Margaret Jackson<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday 14th September 2024 dawned a sunny autumn day.
