The Austwick Horticultural and Village
Produce Association held its Annual Show
August 2009.
Austwick Horticultural and Village Produce
Association
Twenty-Second Annual Flower and Handicraft
Show
August 2009
After an erratic growing
season, which saw plenty of
sunshine followed by lots of
rain, Austwick residents
rose to the challenge and
submitted a record number of
entries to this year's
village show. The greatest
increase in numbers was in
the cooker, handicraft, and
artistic flower classes,
which were all of a very
high standard. A large
proportion of the additional
entries was submitted
by new entrants to the show.
This was particularly
encouraging and will, we
hope, signify a resurgence
of the show's popularity.
A New trophy was donated for
the photography class by
Malcolm Bowker, a keen
photographer himself, in
recognition of his love for
Austwick and the surrounding
area. The show committee
would also like to thank the
Yorkshire Dales Millennium
Trust for contributing funds
for new display boards
through their 'Grassroots'
scheme.
