Garden Visit to Mapperton Manor

Mid Devon Show 2013

The 2013 Flower and Garden Marquee at Mid Devon Show had the theme of the Four Seasons. The Show theme was Cultivating the Future so our talented Design Team came up with creating an orchard and developing the four seasons within it. The design team for 2013 was Janet & Peter Billing; John & Jean Bennett; Rachael Hart; Mary Smith and Ros & Tim Nichols.
