The Royal Windsor Flower Show is back this June and will be opened by honorary president Alan Titchmarsh. The 117th show will take place at The York Club in Windsor Great Park on Saturday, June 8. Organised by the Royal Windsor Rose & Horticultural Society – which recently received confirmation that the King will take over as patron from the late Queen Elizabeth II – the one-day event celebrates nature, gardening, cookery, traditional crafts and old-fashioned fun. Led by headmaster Peter Thacker, the school is developing its curriculum to engage youngsters in nature, gardening and the environment. The initiative runs alongside the show’s school gardening outreach programme, which supports 12 local schools each year.
