There are visits to various gardens including West Dean Gardens and Marle Place. We have two shows each year. The Spring Show is in March and the Annual Show is on the first Saturday in September.

 

Have you ever thought about exhibiting your fruit and vegetables? Can you cook, arrange flowers, knit or be creative? There are special classes for children.

Why not give it a go, it’s great fun.
