We kick off at 1pm on the Garvald playing field and wrap up at 4pm.

Please bring any baking, tablecloth and high vis vest (!) contributions to Chiara at Broomfield House on the evening of Friday 8th August or to set-up on the 9th which will take place 9-11am.

Thank you!

Show preparation is well under way. If you are able to help on the day please let Malcolm or any other committee member know (please use the contact form, below, if you don’t see them in person).

We are still looking for help with the tombola & teas.
Cups still to be returned can be left at Whitelaws.

As in previous years we would be grateful for any tombola donations and baking for the teas .

Many thanks,
Malcolm & the show committee

Garvald & Morham Community Ladies’ Night – Friday 1st August at 7pm

The next Ladies’ Night will be on Friday 1st August at 7pm in the Garvald Stables. We would love to see some of our neighbours from the wider community come along, too!

Please bring some snacks / nibbles / light bites to share as well as your preferred drink.

This is instead of a meal-based event which we have had in the past. This keeps things simple and takes the pressure off planning a little!

See you there!

Art Exhibition – The Humbie Hub – 4th June until 7th July 2025

We are happy to let you know about an upcoming exhibition “Through Land, Glass and Lens”, at the Humbie Hub, showcasing the work of Sheila Calder, one of our own local artists!

Sheila’s latest collection is inspired by the landscapes of the Lammermuir Hills and the Isle of Bute, in which she incorporates textiles, acrylics and natural found objects to create richly textured and atmospheric compositions.

Alongside Sheila’s work, the exhibition also features the photography of Liz Henry and the fused glass artistry of Irina Stancheva, both bringing unique perspectives to themes of landscape and light.

Join us for a Social Evening on Friday 13th June, from 6pm to 8pm, where you can enjoy the artwork in a relaxed and welcoming setting.

We hope you can make it along!
