SOME grew giant onions, while others settled for the best home-grown fruit in a basket.
Artistic talent was also on show, with paintings and crafts telling a story of life in Fenland.
And it was all under one roof, for Gorefield's 18th annual Flower, Vegetable and Craft Show on Saturday.
It was the chance for villagers to display anything which was home-grown, cooked, painted, photographed or crafted.
Entries were about the same as last year - but Marie Humphrey, one of the event organisers, said it was again a success.
"There was a lot of talent on show," she said. "It was another brilliant year."
