PAIGNTON could see the return of a vegetable show in 2012 thanks to Paignton Home Garden and Allotment Society and the society is preparing with an informative talk to be held at the start of the year.

The society used to hold annual events but has not done so for some time, and now hopes to bring the tradition back.

If there is enough interest and support the society is likely to hold the show on one of its sites in July.

And anyone who wants to know how to grow vegetables for show can find out in February.

Joe Wallis, the society's Vice President, has years of experience in vegetable shows and is working towards becoming a fully accredited judge.

He will give a detailed talk on how to grow vegetables to show standards.

The talk will be at the next open meeting of Paignton Home Garden and Allotment Society on Monday, February 6, at 7.30pm, at the RAOB Club in New Street, Paignton.
