Sarah Calcutt, Chair of the Marden Fruit Show said, “The National Fruit Show is where the industry gathers to showcase growing techniques, innovation, storage and the marketing of English fruit.” She adds, “The show ensures that communication within the sector has a platform and the growers who visit are kept up-to-date with developments and innovations in the industry.”

The number of classes has doubled since the show began and now includes soft fruit, nuts, tomatoes and juice as well as the traditional apple and pear displays.

Maria Clarke, show secretary said, “The show is becoming increasingly popular with exhibitors.” Indeed, this year sees over 20 new trade stands, including Fourayes Farm. Anton Paar and Woodland Trust.

The deadline for booking is the 1st October. For more information, contact nfs@nationalfruitshow.org.uk or Gill Collins on 0208 1234 134 and gill@ethercreative.co.uk
