Flower show for Earthfest

THE first ever Emersons and Lyde Green Flower Show will take place this summer.

The free event is a new attraction for the popular EarthFest, which is returning for the sixth time this summer.

A team of enthusiastic volunteers is hard at work organising the community flower show, which will take place on Saturday June 27 at Emersons Green Village Hall, from noon until 4.30pm.

The flower show will be a highlight of the closing day of EarthFest 2026, organised by the Friends of Emersons Green Park.

Other events planned for the day include live music, picnics and family activities, with the aim of creating a vibrant community atmosphere.

Show organisers are eager to invite residents to enter their beautiful flowers, vegetables, indoor plants, cakes, jams, crafts, and artwork.

There will be show categories for children’s entries and opportunities for local stallholders to get involved.

For information on how to participate, enter exhibits, or book stall spaces, contact Claire Ruggiero at ruggiero.claire@gmail.com.

Founded by the Friends of Emersons Green Park in 2021 as the Three Greens Festival, the annual celebration of our relationship with the planet attracted nearly 400 attendees across a range of events last year.

It also held school workshops for the first time, reaching hundreds of children.
