No village gathering is complete without a chance to show off the size of your spuds, or the shape of your marrows. In keeping with tradition visitors to the Dirty Bristow Summer Fête can bring their legumes, tubers and other classes of veg or fruit to be judged for the grand prize.
Entries will be judged on size, quality* and presentation — feel free to dress them up, or construct carrot dioramas representing famous historical events. See for example this scene depicting Thor Heyerdahl arriving at Tuamotu Archipelago on the Kon-Tiki:
Just look at his big carroty member.
