Tottenham Flower and Produce Show 2021

Saturday September 11thin the Rec

The Friends and partners want to put on the best ever Tottenham Flower and Produce Show. After the last 15 months of the pandemic we need some community fun!

We have been unable to raise enough funds due to the high number of worthy funding applications this year for scant resources so we need reluctantly to come to you, our Lordship Rec community for financial donations.

If you would like to donate please give to our Just Giving page at:
