The annual Test Valley Wood Fair held in the woods down in Chandlers Ford, Hampshire on Saturday 1st September 2018 was again a great success and the third year for having a bonsai display in the woods. Eastleigh and Solent Bonsai Societies put on the display of their bonsai trees and they were admired by all who came to the free community event. Collette from Southampton Bonsai was also present for anyone who wanted to start the hobby of bonsai. It is a great family event and there is so much to see and do all day it is well worth a visit.
