Pre-loved pavilion

Garden games

There will be free interactive games for children in the walled garden, courtesy of Supercamps and The Bushcraft Company. Rosie Posie and About Faces will be face-painting all day.

Garden tours and chicken chats

Seed swap

Have you planted your spring seeds and still have a few left in the packet, or did you harvest more than you needed last year? Share the love and bring your seeds along to a seed swap. You’ll be able to exchange your spare seeds for something you don’t have. All seeds are welcome, from flowers to produce.

Picnic on the lawn

Sit back, relax and enjoy the live music as you take a break from the activities.
