If a single silver lining has shone out during the Covid-cancellations and disruption, it’s that our love for gardening has grown.

Gardens and the wildlife they nurture have offered a counterpoint to the challenges faced over the garden fence and for so many have become fundamentally important.

We’ve always supported growers, local food-producers, makers and Mother Nature, bringing a family of the best together to create a memorable day out for our visitors.

With so many events cancelled the pent-up appetite for plants, garden décor and decorations has never been greater while the potential of gardens to top up our spirits, never more vital.

So, while 2020 was quiet on the festival-front we’ve been busy researching and working with the Council, our event organisers and safety team to stage a revitalised and secure Fest for 2021.

It’s been a long time coming… but I hope you will join us in the Spring.

Until then, happy gardening!
