Thanks for the tips.
@pdlouche - I'll check it out irl, but it's really just for this day and my mum is petite.

It's quite a trek from the station or car park to get in. Be prepared for plenty of walking.
There are various little concerts and lecture things throughout the day - look up the schedule if that kind of thing interests you. Food queues can be long.
You can skip the Country Living tent, although it's a good refuge if it rains.
Take a water bottle.
If you don't want to carry plants around all day the stalls will stick them behind the counter for you to collect at the end of the day, or there's a plant creche you can take them to (can't remember if it's free though).
Don't buy the first thing you see - you'll find some overlap between stalls so have a proper browse.
If you're taking the train, you might find the station is so packed on the way back that you might not fit on the first train.
It's a good day out and a great venue, especially if the weather's nice. More spread out than Chelsea.
