14:00-16:00 at Bedales School.

With Live Music – A Quartet from The National Youth Jazz Orchestra

Thank you to everyone who joined us on that glorious summer day last year. It was great to have so many participants and visitors who enjoyed drinking more tea and eating more cakes than ever! We are full of praise for everyone who managed to grow an entry despite the torrid weather conditions (and deer predation). The marquee, as ever, as you walked into it was an uplifting sight of beautiful flowers -as well as vegetables, art, photography, crafts, preserves and stunning cakes!

We will continue keeping as many elements of the event as sustainable as possible, as well as making it a joyful highlight of the village calendar. In 2022 we introduced the new Sustainability Trophy and it’s back this year so hopefully, you’ll not only enter but pick up a few more tips for your own sustainable gardening.

Please enter as many classes as you can. There really is something that everyone can have a go at, from age 4 upwards.

So, ink the date into your diary and bring your friends and family to enjoy the wonderful atmosphere, flowers, vegetables, fruit, art, photos, crafts, music from the National Youth Jazz Orchestra, raffle, tombola, outdoor games, produce stall and of course… lots of yummy cake!
