Potato Challenge 2021 – Final Results!
The village picnic was the ideal venue to hold the weigh in for entries to this year’s potato challenge (who could grow the biggest weight of potatoes from one tuber in a standard bag). This was made more enjoyable by the appearance of our local Member for Parliament and Chancellor, The Right Honourable Rishi Sunak, who took great interest in the weigh in.
There were entries from villagers, allotment holders and children. Winner of the adult section was Bob Scorer with 3.7 kg and Tobias Harrison won the children’s entry with 0.8 kg
