John Busby Triumphs At The Barrasford Marrow Show.
Published 09/10/04
Stamfordham man John Busby was the winner of the 2004 Barrasford Marrow Show. John scooped the £5 winners prize in the event with a marrow reportedly grown from a seed taken from last years winning specimen.

The event, now in its twenty fourth year, also raised £750 for Macmillan Cancer Relief, in memory of a former winner Clive Neil, who died from cancer.

The Hexham Courant reported that the judge for the Barrasford Marrow Show travelled all the way from Texas to Northumberland – and brought several other Texans with him.

Founder member and Barrasford Arms landlord Tom Milburn said: “It’s not a show as such – it’s just a bit of fun. “The regulars wanted to do something different from the usual leek shows, and it has caught on. “There are 24 different names on the cup, and there will be a different one for the 25th next year – after that we might start to take it seriously.”
