LODHS FLOWER AND PRODUCE SHOW 2015

Well, it all happened at Hazelwood School School, Limpsfield on Saturday 11 July. This is our first time in this splendid venue, but alas, the entries and visitors were not as numerous as anticipated. Nevertheless, we had a splendid show as can been from the photos below.
We wish to thank the Chair of the School Governors, Jo Naismith for presenting the prizes and for the the special prize given by the school.
We must not forget two other very important people our judges; Sylvia Pocock and Carol Buldeath.
Finally, our exhibitors and helpers without whom we wold not have a show. Their contribution is invaluable.
See also our Chairman's "thank you" in the post below.

We look forward to learning the outcome later in the year.
