Ellens Green and Rudgwick Gardening Association has decided to hold the event online so that hard work preparing entries for the show – which was due to take place in the Ellens Green Memorial Hall on Saturday, March 21 – is not wasted.

Richard Haigh, chairman of the club, said: “We had to cancel our usual spring show but one of our members had the idea of holding a virtual show online. We thought ‘why not?’ so our web team have been working flat out to get it ready.”
