Our judging for South West in Bloom took place on Friday July 16th. It was a fine day, the town looked splendid, and the judges, Jon Wheatley and Tom Sharples were very warm in their comments.
You can check out the highlights of this year's judging route on the pages of the website. Our Portfolio (the full summary of how we addressed the judges' requirements) is available on the Downloads page.
We now have a few finishing-up jobs left, and of course we want to maintain the displays through the holiday season, for the enjoyment of residents and visitors.
The results will be announced at the South West in Bloom event in Bath on September 16th.
We will be having our own event, with presentations to local competition winners on 17th September; more details to follow.
A new look for the Town Square
Plans for a stunning new display behind the Information Centre are given here. A public showing of the pland took place on Saturday April 17th at the Farmer's Market. The project, funded by the South Devon Coastal Local Action Group (incorporating funding from the EU, Defra, SWRDA and LEADER) and local support, will start this year and be completed by next - watch this space!
