At the recent Ringwood Town Council meeting, awards were presented to the winners of the 2013 allotment competition.
Judged by members of Ringwood Garden Club along with former councillor Norman Light, prizes were presented by Cllr Brian Terry, chairman of the Recreation, Leisure and Open Spaces committee.
On behalf of Ringwood Garden Club, Robin Atak said that he was pleased to undertake the judging and commented on the difficult weather conditions of the previous winter, the late spring and very hot summer. Despite this, many allotment holders had obtained impressive results. He also commended the town council for the flower displays in the town.
