| | Abbots Ripton Hall Garden Show 2010.......We were certainly lucky with the weather this time round, the sun shone for the whole of the weekend and brought in crowds to view the wonderful Floral Art exhibits. Over a hundred very different and imaginative pieces of work were on display each one a worthy winner, but there is only one winner in each class, one of our members in particular was more than lucky as Lee Berrill scooped Best in Show, Runner up to Best in Show, the Award for the most innovative design and 3 firsts! just how does someone do that! But to the many who were unsuccessful in the prizes congratulations it would have been a poor show without you and your continued support, Well done. A few ventured to try their hand at making a simple hand tied and the hands one section of the show, children were busy making small arrangements. whilst others enjoyed the beautiful gardens at Abbotts Ripton Hall.
