We are a small friendly society whose aims are:
To continue to maintain village activities concerned with amateur fruit, flower and vegetable growing and presentation, home cookery, photography and handicrafts.
To encourage children in the above by maintaining strong links with Sissinghurst C of E School, whose pupils submit amazing artwork at every show.
To offer help and advice to beginners of all ages.
To run three shows a year and we are always willing to offer help and advice to new entrants.
To encourage and welcome those who do not qualify for the competitive classes due to their professional expertise, to stage special exhibits demonstrating their skills.
