Competition is open to amateur gardeners and designers living in Butte, Colusa, Glenn, Sutter or Yuba counties, who care for their own garden, with or without occasional help. An amateur is someone who grows and shows for pleasure rather than as a profession. Flower growers, floral arrangers and designers whose chief source of income is generated from these activities are considered professionals and are not eligible to compete except in the professional florist divisions in floral design. Flower show judges and instructors are considered masters and may only compete in the professionals/masters division in floral design. 3. Exhibitors are required to complete entries online by specified deadline. Computers and assistance are available at Fair office if needed. Contact Fair office at for more information. 4. Containers for fresh cut flowers and foliage specimens will be supplied by the fair. 5. Containers owned by exhibitors must be marked with a durable label with his/her name and phone number. Exhibitor must furnish an acceptable saucer for safe watering (except in the cactus and succulent divisions). 6. All Exhibits must be groomed; pest and disease free. 7.

Receiving will be in the Flower Bowl with access via GATE 3. If GATE 3 is closed or no parking spaces are available behind the Flower Bowl use GATE 4 unless instructed to do otherwise on the day of receiving. 14.
