The traditional country fair is a memory for many communities, but not Narrabri.
The annual Presbyterian flower Show to be held on Saturday at the St Stephen’s Hall, is a fair of the old style.
“We will have everything you would expect to find at a fair” said spokesman Graeme Philp.
And the fair provides a great lunch too, with some of the best home cooking you will find, although the ladies in the kitchen would be too modest to say so.
This week the fair organisers have been busy unpacking produce.
“We will have craft, ranging from soft toys to coathangers and embroidered tea towels, plants for the garden, pickles, chutneys and cakes.
“There will be home made donuts and milkshakes and Devonshire teas.”
And, of course there will be fresh flowers on display, the best from some of the best gardeners.
“Everyone has contributed something to the day” said Graeme.
Trading tables start at St Stephen’s hall at 10am and regular visitors to the fair make a point of being early.
