EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Chichester Photographic Collection, we are transported back to a simpler time in rural West Sussex. The image captures two young girls at the renowned West Sussex Horticultural Society Autumn Show, held on 2nd November 1961. Their beaming smiles reflect their excitement as they proudly display their certificates of achievement. The competition was fierce, but these talented girls emerged victorious with their stunning chrysanthemum flower arrangement. With glasses perched on their noses, they exude an air of determination and passion for horticulture beyond their years. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the charm and beauty of a bygone era when community events like this were eagerly anticipated by locals. It serves as a reminder that even in the midst of bustling city life, there existed pockets of tranquility where nature flourished. As we admire this photograph today, it transports us back to a time when children found joy in simple pleasures and celebrated nature's bounty with pride. The innocence captured here is timeless, reminding us to appreciate the wonders around us and find solace in our own gardens. Preserved within the archives of West Sussex Record Office Ref No: CPS0888-4, this image stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of horticultural societies and showcases how such events fostered a love for gardening among generations past.
