On Saturday 4th August, 2007 Ardentinny Village Hall Committee put on their Annual Flower Show.

Attendance was remarkable, with parking spilling across to a neighbouring field, and the standard of exhibits and displays were judged to be outstanding. There was a wide array of vegetables, pot plants and cut flowers on show, together with a prolific and varied display of arts and crafts. The mouth-watering baking and confectionery kept a packed house waiting for closing time and a chance to sample these delicacies.
