We are always very keen to encourage children to join in our activities.  We hope they enjoy and learn from having a go at gardening, cooking or craft activities.  In each of our shows, we have competitions especially for children.  They vary from one show to the next and include challenges like making a miniature garden in a seed tray, baking some butterfly cakes or making a monster out of vegetables.  Classes coming up at the next show (16.8.25) are:
