Robson. Making the presentation was Bob Flowerdew.
Bob Flowerdew is a TV presenter and one of Britain's
best-known organic gardeners; he also regularly

As
well as all the introductions, Steve hosted the
auction / raffle and question and answer session
with both the Duchess and Bob Flowerdew.
The
auction prizes were very kindly donated by Denise

as being able to see the show filmed live.
