Are you ready for the Hurst Horticultural and Cottage Garden Show? Watch out for the Schedules in the Village shops - there are classes for novice gardeners, flower arrangers, children, and the young at heart.

Can you spare an hour or so during the day to help out on the day? Rita Bunyard is looking for volunteers to help prepare and serve the teas. If you are able to lend a hand, please contact her on 934 xxxx.

It's never too early to prepare your flowers, produce and crafts for this wonderful Show, which will be held in the Large Village Hall and grounds on Saturday 18 August. The horticultural, home industries and craft entries close at 6pm on Wednesday 15 August. All entries must be staged before 10.30am when judging commences.
