Welcome to the Joint page of our Clent WI and Clent Gardening Club. We hold our Annual Flower Show every year on a Saturday in early September. We have a raffle, tombola and a cake stall in our garden Marquee. There are also some activities for children.
We welcome you to enter an exhibit in our Horticultural classes, bakery, preserves, crafts, art, photography, flower arrangements and children’s classes. See “Rules” below. We pride ourselves on arranging a pleasant and enjoyable afternoon for all.
OPEN TO EXHIBITORS ONLY FROM 8.30am to 10.30am – 20p per exhibit
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC from 2.30pm. Admission is £1.00 with CHILDREN FREE. OUR OPENING CEREMONY WILL BE at 3pm.
Visitors are welcome to come and look at what we do and maybe next year you too will want to enter. Entry forms are within the Schedule along with recipes for the Children’s, Adults and Men’s classes. Can you make oaty cookes, focaccia or cheesy biscuits? Do you like flower arranging? Maybe preserves are your bag! Are your grown vegetables and fruit pretty amazing? Do you love photography? We like to show a whole range of classes. (Our Schedules are available at Clent Nurseries and Belbroughton Shop at least two months before the Show)
Remember, it is not always the winning, it can be just as enjoyable taking part.
