The School’s competition ‘Growing for Fun’ is being opened up to all nurseries, pre-school, play-groups, primary and secondary schools, and also further education colleges in Fife, and any educational eco-groups. ‘Growing for Fun’ can take the form of a flower garden, vegetable garden or a combination of both. Assistance can be sought from the staff and students from the Horticultural Department at the SRUC Elmwood Campus who have volunteered their services to any group wishing to participate in this initiative.
Closing date for entries: Friday 9th June
Judging: Thursday 22nd June
Novice or New Exhibitors?
If you are new to the showing scene, why not put your exhibits into the new NOVICE Section. If you are a little daunted by the open categories why not give this a go; enjoy it and see what happens.
Have you a Bonsai? Why not bring it along and join in the display of the Fife Bonsai Society in the lower hall. A number of classes are available to enter, and the “Best Bonsai in Show” class will be awarded by way of the most public votes of those attending the event on Saturday 19th August. Votes must be cast by 2pm at the latest.
