Grow and cook your own at Hampton Court |
|
Renowned garden designer Michael Balston is building a Growing Tastes garden inspired by Asian, Mediterranean and British cuisines. All of the fruit and vegetables for these gardens will be produced locally to the show by RHS Garden Wisley. The Growing Tastes Marquee will house this year’s Summer Fruit and Vegetable Competition, where amateur growers will display the best in seasonal produce and be judged by the RHS. The Marquee will also include growers and experts displaying a diverse range of edible produce.
Gardens and exhibits across the show will be filled with an abundance of fruit and vegetables. Hampton Court Palace Flower Show is set to whet the appetite and has something for every taste. |


There’s a fresh new feel to this year’s Hampton Court Palace Flower Show with the delicious new fruit and vegetable themed feature, Growing Tastes. Filled to the brim with inspirational ideas for growing and cooking fruit and vegetables at home, visitors will leave equipped with a wealth of tips and expert knowledge about growing their own.
It is all very well growing delicious things to eat in the garden, but it’s also great to know how to prepare and cook them! The Growing Tastes Food Demonstration Theatre in association with NS&I, will take the theme of international cuisine one-step further. Numerous top chefs and grow-your-own specialists will be cooking mouth-watering recipes and demonstrating a variety of ways to use different produce.
