The 10th annual Starbeck annual fruit, flower and vegetable show on Saturday at the Methodist church in Starbeck was bigger than ever, writes Christine Stewart . The tables of prize-winning onions, carrots, dahlias, fuchsias, cakes and embroidery completely filled the hall and the church. There were nearly 300 entries in all, making fir a stunning display. The mayor of harrogate, Coun Pat Jones , opened the show and enjoyed walking around seeing the entries and meeting the entrants. There was a display by Starbeck group of the Yorkshire country women's association, Vocational skills showed off their bird feeders and in support of Bettys and Taylors Rainforest Appeal there was an activity corner for children making forest animals. Refreshments were supplied by Taylors of Harrogate.
Starbeck in Bloom would like to thank all who entered, visited and helped – without you all, there would be no show.
