Never entered a produce show before but have a glut of courgettes? No worries, just follow our helpful hints....

• 3 well matched courgettes of any colour or shape with some of their stalk left on (so we know they weren’t bought!)
• Courgettes should be clean & free of blemishes and disease
• Maximum size - 15cm including stalk

Have you entered a village show before? 22nd August is our VPA summer show and we can’t wait to see you there. Give it a go! Bring your roses, tomatoes, baking, courgettes, preserves, w**es and spirits and join us in a day of fun and community. We’ll be putting up some handy hints this coming week on how to exhibit produce for showing. 🏆🥬🥧🫖🍅

We have MEALWORMS in store! Love this customer photo. RSPB advice still in place regarding seed but mealworms are deemed ok. Remember our animal and insect friends in this heatwave and leave water and snacks if you’re able for them 🐦‍⬛🦗🐝🪱

Join us for our AGM, Wednesday 22nd April 6.30pm at the Thomas Field Hall (Church). After nibbles and w**e we’re thrilled to say we’re looking forward to a talk from Claire Robinson from the Herts and Middx. Wildlife Trust. She will be talking to us about the conservation work that they do across Hertfordshire that covers a number of habitats and species.
