Along with many garden owners, we originally decided not to open our garden this year due to the pandemic. However, with the improving situation, we have now held popup openings in June and September supporting the charity National garden Scheme. ngs.org.uk
During these days we have also sold plants for St Richards Hospice and at the village of Pirton church fair.
These events have raised just over £1000.
We have to say a big thank you to all our visitors who purchased tickets, refreshments and plants. To the volunteers who manned the stalls and the staff at the National Garden Scheme for their support.
The pictures are from the garden just before the September opening.










We are going forward with more confidence with five other gardens in the village joining us next year on the 4th and 5th June for the National Garden Scheme.
Well done, it looks fabulous and a fantastic total raised!

Your garden looks beautiful and I am sure you have given such a lot of enjoyment to your visitors – not to mention the money you have gathered for charity. I can imagine it involved a lot of work but also a lot of fun. Amelia

We had 40 which is enough in our small garden, we were open just for one day. There are a few gardens open around here this month for the Michaelmas Daisies which are popular due to two local national collections.

Yes, 40 is about right for us too, especially with parking
