Slow spring to test gardeners

The Mangawhai Women’s Institute will hold their 65th Annual Floral and Craft Show on November 10, 2017 at the Mangawhai Library Hall.

Major sponsor for this years show is Ray White Mangawhai at the Village where you can pick up a schedule showing all the different categories available, including cut flowers, cooking, handcraft/art, photography, decorative and vegetables.

There is also a children’s section with three age groups: Pre-school, 5-9 years and 10-15 years, which has definitely lifted entries and interest over the last couple of years with some interesting ideas and colourful arrangements being presented.

Schedules are also available at Mangawhai Books & Gifts in Wood Street and include contact numbers if prospective entrants have any questions.

There may also be additional information on the Facebook page ‘Mangawhai Women's Institute’ where you can see photos of last years event.
