Welcome to Sutton Show
56th ANNUAL FLOWER & VEGETABLE SHOW - Sunday 1st September 2024
Sutton Ex-Servicemen’s Club will hold its 56th Annual Flower & Vegetable Show on Sunday 1st September 2024.
The Show will again take place with the kind permission of Peter Barber, in a large marquee on Spooners Flats, Hollin Lane, Sutton.
I’m sure the majority of you will now be familiar with the Schedule.
It is more or less the same as in previous years with just a few minor changes with the WI classes again being open to members of any of the Peak Parishes WI’s.
After a greatly successful first few years we will again be staging the ever popular and keenly contested “World Lemon Cheese Championship” and following feedback from local apiarists we’ve added honey to the show.
Special thanks must again go to our friends at Anthony Collins Solicitors for their wonderful, continued support. Please have a chat with them in the marquee on Show Day.
The scarecrow competition will again take place, please spread the word and try to have a go. This year, like previous years, will be an open competition so you can create a “crow” to resemble whatever you want & you’ll find full details later in the schedule.
Please don’t forget the prize money will be paid out on the day of the Show, it certainly helps wrap the show formalities up quickly and so if you are fortunate enough to win a prize, please see the show officials on the day.
The Show really is a friendly village event and is open to everyone so please try and take part. Let’s hope the sun shines, the village turns out and we have a wonderful day.
The marquee will be open to the public from 2:30pm - it takes us until then to finish the judging and write out the certificates for all 137 classes.
