Welcome to the schedule for the 2023 Harrow in LEAF and Headstone Village Show.

The growers amongst you will make their plans early in the season to produce some interesting and delicious fruit and vegetables, and some beautiful flowers, whatever the weather throws at us. But you don't need a garden to have a treasured pot plant or to bake a cake.

Come to the marquee to have a look at what is flourishing in your neighbourhood. Find out more about the fascinating life of bees, and admire the range of crafts on display. But above all, get involved.

This is a village show, which welcomes a wide variety of arts and crafts, of cookery and preserves. What about trying your hand at making beer or wine? It's a thrifty hobby and we'd love to see more of your results.

We are not looking for perfection, but participation. Don't forget, if you enter something, you get free admission for yourself, so why not make this the year when you are proud to say that you really are part of the show.

Don't be afraid of showing - just have a go!

Our own 2 page "Guide to Showing" gives a lot of hints and advice.
