At the 1989 centennial show the best vegetable exhibition secured the prize of a Diploma from the Worshipful Company of Gardeners plus a bottle of gin.
The next decade saw two of our members Alma Andrews and Michael Glasspool delving into the fiercely competitive cauldron of the Chelsea Flower Show entering in the hanging basket/window box section and achieving Silver in 1999, Silver Gilt in 2000 and finally in 2001 Gold, a magnificent achievement.
The society continues to flourish with in excess of 100 members and with an eye to the past the current committee is proud to maintain and enhance the long tradition of the society in changing times though we will leave the final word to Osmund Hill, a secretary of the society who in 1970 said....
“ Organisations such as ours and others constitute the life and soul of the village and knit the community together”
48 years on we tend to agree.
