Flower Tub Safety

Posted on: July 22nd, 2019

Many thanks to local garden and landscaping company CGS for their support in ensuring the safety of the flower tubs positioned in the centre of St Just over this month’s Lafrowda weekend.

In particular we would like to thank Neil McFadden who came up with the idea and for providing the use of his trailer, and also Kevin Prowse for driving the forklift truck.

A good early morning’s bit of work!

St Just from Carn Bosavern

St Just in Bloom – Winners of Gold Medals for the last five years – will be representing the South West Region for the Small Town Category of the 2019 RHS in Bloom UK Finals!

It goes without saying that this is a great honour for the Town and this could not have been achieved without both suppport and commitment from the local Community both business wise and volunteers.

We would greatly appreciate any help and time (no matter how small) that you would be able to spare to assist, e.g. looking after a display, dead heading flowers, etc…

If you can help, please contact Dilys Ryan on 01736 788943 or dillysouthplace14@gmail.com

Let’s show the judges once again what a special place St Just is and the high standards we set!!

St Just in Bloom Awarded the Gold Award and Champion of Champions

Following on from our success in 2014 (see below), we were not only awarded GOLD but are joint Champion of Champions in the South West region of RHS Britain in Bloom 2016!

At the presentation event at Somerset County Cricket Ground in Taunton, 6th October, we were awarded the title jointly with Sherborne in Dorset. The judge, Jon Wheatley, announced that St Just and Sherborne scored exactly the same number of leading points in this year’s Champion of Champions competition and that therefore we were joint Champions.

This is an amazing achievement for St Just. We are so grateful to everyone who has contributed their time, skills, commitment, donations and support to make this prestigious award possible.
