Thousands of people turned out once again over the bank holiday weekend for Harrow’s biggest horticultural festival.
The annual Harrow in LEAF competition brought together plants and vegetables grown by green-fingered residents, with prizes handed out for the best produce on display.
Georgia Weston, chairman of the charity, said: “We try to encourage people who grow stuff in the borough, who have bees, art work and photography, encourage them to show off their work by entering the competition.
“It’s open to everyone who wishes to enter. We try to bring a lot of people together, and it is nice to be recognised within your community.
The two-day event also offered games and live music for families, as well as stalls selling products from local businesses and charities.
It replaced the former Harrow Show five years ago and now attracts a large number of local volunteers who help out over the weekend as well.
