Virtual Veg Show 2009 - Info & Rules

[Snadger]

How about - 'be creative' - and leave it to the imagination...for example one might want to enter a trug full of goodies.....someone might want to enter a selection of beans nicely arranged or some radishes carved into elaborate swans.....

I've added the 'how to add pictures' link to the bottom of Sarz's original post.

In local shows 'Being creative ' can get you the dreaded NAS (Not as specified) tag!!!!!!

The rate I'm going I'll be lucky to get three of anything, let alone show winners!

You could submit 'One Bean in a Trug' HW

Great idea mods, will get the camera out and polish the lense! (covered in muck from being in walking trousers pocket all the time!)

Glad we're doing this again this year, thanks mods! Darn it, there's no 'potted plant' category this year, I won it last year being the only entry in it! Will have to see if I can grab anything I've grown before the slugs/snails/birds get it so that it looks presentable!

Now there's an idea. He is big!

The Show threads are now officially open for entries Details of voting will be added to the initial 'Info' post at the top of the thread very shortly, but voting won't begin until the entry threads close at the end of September.

For this year, the Show is on a "just-for-fun" basis - there won't be any prizes and it's unlikely to end up in the magazine. However, we're sure that won't put any of you off, to be voted the winner by Grapes themselves will be exciting, and we all love to show everyone the produce we're so proud of

So, lets all get busy with our cameras before the best stuff ends up on our plates, and make it a really great Show for ourselves!

[OllieMartin]

Boo, I pickled all my beetroot and forgot to take pictures

[BumbleB]

Can you post up the jar?

How long will voting be open for? I am away 28th Sept - 4th October but would like to vote.

They're sliced now so would have to enter them into the "Best Dish" category and I'm sure I'll have lots of better entries to choose from in there like the bacon, potato and runner bean salad I had today, yum-yum
