Kilmington Flower Show
The village hall looked stunning with 224 entries for this year’s annual flower show. Heavy rain throughout the afternoon did not deter competitors and local residents from turning out to see the beautiful flowers, fruit and vegetables on display.
Everyone enjoyed the very sociable gathering, with tea coffee and an array of homemade cakes on offer. The RHS Banksian medal awarded to the overall champion for horticulture went to Mike Hawkins.
The Parish Council Award for the Best Allotment went to Nigel Phillips.
Thank you and congratulations to all our prize winners and to everyone who entered. Thanks also to the helpers and the cake-makers and to the Gardening Club Committee for organising a great event.
