 Judging in 2004...
       

With the season already well under way, a number of judging groups have visited the village and we have been advised that Falkland has retained the award for Best Medium Village in East Fife. Judges acting on behalf of Fife Wide and Scotland in Bloom have also toured the village recently but it will be some time until results of their findings are announced in the months ahead.

 

One of Britain in Bloom's top judges, along with a lady colleague, arrives here on Thursday, 5th. August when we will be measured against other communities in our category from locations all over Great Britain. Our floral displays are in fine order again this year, despite indifferent summer weather, but there are many other things that can win or lose us points. The judges also consider matters like sustainable planting, recycling, the local environment, litter and of course, community involvement.

 

Following the great support we received from residents last summer during this inspection, we are asking that everyone in the village again plays a part in ensuring Falkland looks its best that day. Local householders are being asked to ensure gardens are neat and tidy, with grass cut and house fronts free from weeds and litter. Evidence of dog fouling loses us points and we are also seeking the co-operation of dog owners by asking them to clear up after their pets. 

Thursday, August 5th. is Falkland's big day ---- anyone who can play a part in this community effort is warmly invited to do so.
