Living and working in Cranleigh as I do, it’s difficult to express a preference for any annual show other than the Cranleigh Show.
But over the past few years we have become regular visitors to the Albury Produce Show.
2014 will be the 68th consecutive Albury Produce Show (for the show, not for me as a visitor!) but according to their records, shows took place there in the 1920’s and 1930’s.
If you’re local to Albury and haven’t visited before, I recommend it.
The show is held on Albury Cricket Ground, Albury Heath, Albury, in the beautiful Surrey Hills.
With our horse living a mile down the road in Farley Green and my girlfriend working a mile the other direction at a school in Chilworth, we are almost local to the area!
This year the show takes place on Saturday 19th July, from 2pm to 5pm. If you’re feeling energetic, there is a Barn Dance afterwards, starting at 8pm.
For the first time this year, I’ve decided to enter the show, submitting several of my photographs and aiming to accumulate enough points for a chance at winning the coveted Carolyn & Michael Woods Cup!
Here is a sneak preview of some of my entries:
