Open for entries
The 2015 Scottish Smallholder & Grower Festival is open for entries, with schedules and entry forms for all shows now available from our website.
With shows for cattle, goats, pigs, poultry and waterfowl, and garden, craft and food there really is an opportunity for anyone to exhibit at the 2015 Festival.
New this year
Every year we try to improve the Festival and listen to feedback from exhibitors and visitors. New for 2015 in our showing classes:
- Our Goat show is now British Goat Society recognised, with winners receiving BGS rosettes, challenge certificates and certificates of merit.
- Egg content classes, in the Garden, Craft & Food competition. These classes judge the quality and freshness of an egg’s contents, rather than its external appearance.
- A new themed section in Garden, Craft & Food, “Man’s Best Friendâ€, with six classes related to dogs, from cupcakes to photographs!
Links to all schedules and entry forms are listed below. If you have any questions at all about our showing classes, or any other aspect of the Festival please contact us - we're here to help.
