NAFAS prepares for Chelsea
There's just a couple of weeks to go before the start of the Chelsea Flower Show!
An intrepid team of nine dedicated lady flower arrangers from the Kent Area of NAFAS are well under way with their exhibit which will be displayed in the Great Pavilion. At a 'secret' location in the heart of Kent, the team is finalising its design which will be 20 feet square and over 18 feet high! The last time that Kent as an area participated at the Chelsea Show was way back in 1984.
A final look by the National Chairman of NAFAS has just taken place, but the Kent Team is still not revealing the final design details to any of its 1,300 members in the Kent Area.
The team, led by Brenda Jackson, a floral art teacher from Meopham, near Gravesend, along with arrangers from all corners of the County of Kent, has been working hard creating this wonderful floral design over the last eighteen months.
Meetings have been held with the floral wholesaler from Ashford, who will be supplying the fabulous and unusual flowers for this magical exhibit.
We will keep you in touch with their progress over the next few hectic days until 'Judging time' on 19 May!
