The Brentor Produce Show brought the community together on Sunday 24 August with a display of home-grown and homemade entries inside Brentor Village Hall.

The annual event, which raises funds for the upkeep of the hall, featured a wide range of categories including cakes, preserves, pumpkins, apples, flowers, craft items and children’s painted pebbles.

Six guest judges were invited to sample and examine the entries before the winners were announced.
