Despite the variable weather, there was a good show of fruit and vegetables, especially beans, potatoes, onions and tomatoes.

With the relaunch of the Great British Bake Off, village bakers had been busy with cakes and biscuits including the “made by a man” jam tarts. Crafts, flowers and floral art brightened up the hall too.
