Flower Festival 2011
This year's theme was Crofting. We hope you enjoyed the display, and we are deeply grateful to our sponsors: -
Dounreay Communities Fund
Norscot Joinery Ltd
George Shearer
Esme Duncan
Rosemary Muir
And to all those who gave donations, loaned items for display, baked, fetched and carried, and helped in so many other ways - Thank you ALL.
It is impossible on a web page to do justice to the beautiful flower displays that we all think excelled even last year, but we hope the photos below will give you at least a flavour of the festival - and hopefully whet your appetite to get involved next year!
