We attended Shrewsbury Flower Show again this year, entering both the
Society class with our main stand, and also members entered the individual
classes.
We weren't awarded a place for our stand, but achieved a few 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in
the individual classes. So all in all, still a successful event for us.

We put a lot of effort into our entry, aiming to maintain our high standard
of Gold Medals. But disappointingly, we were awarded a Silver-Gilt
this year, although this is still a great achievement...

We enjoyed the last round of pot-making so much and were so pleased
