Lambeth Country Show 2012 - part three
Brockwell Park, Herne Hill, London
[Map location] 15th - 16th September 2012
The Flower Zone is billed as offering a 'traditional, friendly and quaint atmosphere,' and contains flower, vegetable, home baking, jam, scarecrow making and�recycled garden�planting competitions.
The real draw is, of course, the 'vegetable character competition,' and there was a particularly strong showing this year.

Inside the Flower Zone tent.

Crowds gather around the vegetable character competition table.

Fantastic carrot and parsnip-based homage to Anthony Gormley.


Admiring the exhibits.


Jarvis Cocker, or rather 'Harvest Cocker,' was the worthy winner of the Harvest Festival-themed vegetable figure competition.

A rather moving tribute to Terry Nutkins, which garnered praise from a poster on the urban75 forums who observed that the, 'attention to detail was magnificent.'



A pineapple owl.


The Ol-yam-pic rings.


Some of the cakes seemed to have suffered in the heat.
