Garden House, terrace seating area and lawn available for Events
Members and local community groups may hire the Garden House and terrace seating areas, and the lawn if appropriate, for Events such as parties and meetings. The booking is not for the Garden as a whole as we do not restrict entry to other Garden members during an Event.
We can normally accommodate only two Events (parties or meetings) per week and we do not take bookings for Sundays. For information about booking the Garden House, email Evelyn our Membership Secretary, at oldengarden1@gmail.com

Preparing the Garden for the winter months
Our Autumn Gardening Day was a great success! Lots of volunteers came along. We planted colourful winter pansies and cyclamen and gave the garden a good tidy. Thank you to all who helped to sweep and gather the fallen leaves. And our younger helpers did a brilliant job of stomping on top of the leaf piles!
The Garden will go to sleep for a bit during the winter. But keep a watch for the early spring bulbs planted by our volunteers.
