Entry to all our competitions is free. There are guides to packing your competition entries and if you have any queries you can contact the Show Office. Copies of the Regulations and rules can be downloaded for Top Fruit Classes 1 - 21, Soft Fruit Classes 30 - 33, Cobnuts and Walnuts Classes 50, 51 and 55. Tastiest and Heaviest conditions are also included.

*The Committee has decided that due to fruit being so large this year (2017) an extra larger size will be permitted for all Dessert apple and pear classes.
