Harrogate Borough  make a welcome return having lasted exhibited in 1989, with their “Postcard from Harrogate”, Sue Wood the Horticulture Officer explained ” The exhibit will be transferred to Montpellier in Harrogate after the show and will be used to frame Betty’s tea room, we felt that Betty’s was something very typically Harrogate.

The Foundation Degree Garden Design students from Craven College won the premier award, the highest award you can be awarded at the show. They were up against established Garden Deisgners making it an even more worth-while win for the College.

The show runs until Sunday 17 April 2011.
