WHEN EVERYTHING COMES UP ROSES
That was how we felt this past weekend about Greyton’s best loved event. Everything came together to make the Rose Show and Open Gardens such a fabulous success.

With record numbers of locals and visitors strolling our 12 magnificent Open Gardens and admiring our Rose Show, in some glorious weather, over a three-day weekend, we knew the feeling of success.

A very big thank you from Ria and I to the open gardeners, sponsors and donors and volunteers. We loved the children entertaining us on Saturday at the market.

All proceeds from the Event will go this year to the Early Childhood Development for education of our children in our valley.
Thank you everyone for contributing to our much loved event.

See you again next year.
Ria Wills and Penny Sparrowhawk

Greytonians can almost hear their roses growing ready for their beautiful blooms to be entered into the Greyton Rose Show for display on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th October, to visit when you are strolling around the Open Gardens.

The Rose Show will be held at the St Andrews Church Hall and you can bring your entries on Friday 24th October from midday onwards. Judging will take place Friday evening.

If you would like more information, you can pick up a copy of “About the Rose Show” at the OK Supermarket or the Local Pharmacy in Main Road.

We are looking forward to seeing Greyton’s finest blooms this year at the Church Hall for growers, friends and visitors to admire.
