During the weekend of 13-14 July, from 10 am to 3 pm, eight local gardens, allotments and organisations will open their doors to the public to share their wonderful spaces! Each one is unique, but they all share a passion for growing, and looking after their communities!

What to expect

A weekend full of garden tours, activities for everyone, nature crafts, workshops, live music and more at these wonderful local gardens, right on your doorstep!
