SPRING truly sprung at a show celebrating Dorset's produce.
Dorchester Agricultural Society's annual spring show was held at Sunninghill School in Dorchester and members of the public were encouraged to enter a number of competitive classes including traditional horticulture, vegetables, photography and cookery. Children aged 16 and under were also invited to enter with a range of special classes.
Organisers said there were record entries for this year's show, which took place in April.
The Dorchester Agricultural Perpetual Challenge Cup for the Best Exhibit in the Show went to Ivor Clark.
The Pride Perpetual Challenge Bowl for the Best Exhibit in Classes 33-56 went to Bill Howarth.
The Pickard Perpetual Challenge Plate for the Best Exhibit in the Children's Classses went to Bea Britton.
Dorchester Agricultural Society is already gearing up for its main event of the year, the Dorset County Show, which takes place this year on September 7 and 8.
