This book is so charming!

If you're an Anglophile, or a gardener, or someone who enjoys fairs and farmer's markets - this book will really delight you. Lot's of pretty photos (on gorgeous thick matte paper!) and plenty of leisure-reading on how to grow fruit, flowers & veggies for show. Also info on baking cakes, shortbreads, jams and jellies... All of this with a good dose of British culture! Truly charming.

This is a lovely overview of how to enter produce in a village show and is a beautiful book. I would have liked to see a section on showing eggs and a little more on homebrew though.

I entered the Beetroot and Carrot cake in our village show. The recipe is in the book. The judges comment was “balanced flavours” and I had first prize. I just followed the recipe!

Very useful book. I'm our allotment show organiser at present and found this book really helpful for revising the schedule.

I was disappointed in this book.

When I ordered the book I was hoping for helpful advice on showing my flowers. Instead I found that the information given was very repetitious and not detailed enough. I show fuchsias and sweet peas and no mention was made about what the judge would be looking for. The RHS handbook does have all the information more of which I think could have been incorporated into this book.
