Another Echo Exclusive… The Queen and her corgis will be one of the main attractions at the inaugural Flamborough Flowerpot Festival which starts this Sunday (May 29) and runs until 30 June.
Unfortunately the real Queen is just a little bit busy and will be sending her ‘flowerpot’ representative to oversee proceedings in the village.
And with great community spirit the residents of Flamborough have been ‘going potty’ and have pulled out all the stops making fabulous plant pot models.
Event organiser Julie Sanders said: “There are Vikings and fishermen, divers and potty people, a puffin, a lighthouseand also a Queen to name but a few and they are to be found in gardens around the village. There are also six stray cats hidden around the trail for the children to spot.”
“There are over 30 models already on
display and there could be more before the end of the Festival on the 30 June. Locations of models have been entered onto a map and the owners of theViking Hotel have made an eight-foot model. They will also collecting donations for the Flamborough Pre School.” added Julie.
The village has also been Yarnbombed to add to the Flowerpot Festival festivities.
