The Mayor gave us a silver cup, which was nice.
As always, the arrival of this summer’s harvest also marked the start of the village show season.
Regular readers will know we have enjoyed mixed form at the village show over the last seven years.
And this year was no exception, as Emma’s amazing harvest allowed us to enter more categories than ever before, including for the first time my growing home brew activities giving us an entry in all the drinks categories.
The later produced a surprise overall section win in the brewing category, and a trip to see the Town Mayor for one of the Show’s coveted silver cups! While Emma’s produce yielded a first prize for plums, a second prize for squashes and two third places for our shallots and a collection of vegetables.
