Sutton & District Horticultural Society hosts successful Spring Show

The Sutton & District Spring Show was held on Sunday, April 7, in Sutton Village Hall. After the wettest winter/early Spring on record the sun finally came out for us and we had a glorious day.

The weather leading up to the show was probably responsible for slightly fewer entries this spring but the entries for the classes other than horticultural were higher than usual and we had a really wonderful display for visitors to enjoy in the afternoon as well as the delicious homemade cakes and raffle.

Not for the first time the men shone in the cookery classes with Jamie Tetlow winning the Spring Baker's Cup with his traditional Cornish pasty in the 'Men only' class. The rest of the Tetlow family also excelled in photography, intermediate cookery and junior handicraft.
