Every September at the Three Counties Showground in Malvern, Worcestershire, UK, Martyn Davis – a National Vegetable Society Judge – welcomes expert growers to the CANNA UK National Giant Vegetables Championship, held in association with Westons Cider Mill. Martyn checks that the vegetables comply to the strict competition criteria, and that they are weighed and documented appropriately.
