HAVING asked local garden clubs to feed me with details of their summer shows I have had my first schedule from the Meltham Gardeners’ Society.

Their 69th annual show is to be held in the Church Hall, Greens End Road, Meltham, on Saturday, September 4, with the doors opening to the public at 4pm and the official opening by the Rev Maureen Read at 5pm. Admission is 50p.

There are 89 classes in this year’s show. For a copy of the schedule call secretary Mrs A Jones on 01484 327346.

If you are a member of a local club with a local show in August or September, send me a schedule to the usual address at Features Office, Huddersfield Daily Examiner, Queen Street South, Huddersfield, HD1 3DU.

` The 69th Huddersfield Flower and Vegetable Show will once again be held at Ravensknowle Park on Wakefield Road, Moldgreen, due to the restoration of its usual venue, Greenhead Park.

The dates are August 14 and 15. Call Sally White on 01484 234021 for a schedule and more details or visit www.kirklees.gov.uk.
