NORWICH – Gardeners of varying skill-sets across the county still have time to head out to their flower beds and water their blossoms so they are perked up and ready to go “Down on the Farm” for the annual Flower Show at the Chenango County Fair, August 6-11. All entries must be submitted before noon on Saturday, August 3.

Members of all five Chenango County Garden Clubs – Norwich, North Norwich, Town and Country, Greene and Oxford – have been tirelessly preparing Floral Hall for what has become a popular attraction at the fair.

Admittance to the Flower Show is open to anyone who has paid the fair admission.

All classes of entry for this year’s “Down on the Farm” themed event are open to residents of Chenango County or any member of a Chenango County garden club, unless otherwise specified.

Entry cards are supplied by the fair office and must be properly filled out and submitted by this Saturday, and all entries need to be done in advance, according to garden club committee member Jane Clement.

Horticulture entries will be placed on Sunday, August 4 from 5 to 7 p.m. and Monday, August 5 from 7 to 10:30 a.m.
