Oakington Garden Centre Flower Show and Pollinator Festival: BGC and other local garden clubs were invited to enter the Flower show at Oakington. Unfortunately the date was the same as our Flower and Produce Show in Bourn, so most people were unable to enter, however, on behalf of the club, Kate Dawson entered the competition, using flowers from their beautiful garden.
We are very pleased to note that Kate won First Prize in both the Scented and White garden categories.
Congratulations Kate!
