National Garden Scheme Hampshire
IN HAMPSHIRE
A small selection of the National Garden Scheme gardens continue to open their gates to the general public, with the added bonus of Tea and Cake (not all garden owners choose to provide these) This is in accordance with the latest Governments Guidelines.
For those of you who are fans of the free magazine Country Gardener, I’m pleased to say that this is starting up again with the September issue - available from mid August. This magazine is available at some gardens centres and various outlets, and generally contains some very interesting articles. Watch out for an article on Hampshire National Garden Scheme - during the pandemic.
The Hampshire gardens which are open during August are as follows:-
1st & 2nd August: Old Camps, Newbury Road, Headley, Thatcham RG19 8LG
1st, 2nd & 3rd August: Selborne (not the village) Caker Lane, East Worldham, Alton. GU34 3AE
2nd & 3rd August: Bleak Hill Nursery & Garden, Harbridge, Ringwood. BH24 3PX
8th, 9th & 10th August: Wheatley House, Wheatley Lane, Borden. GU35 9PA
22nd 23rd & 24th August: “ " “ “ “ “ “
9th August: The Thatched Cottage, Church Road, Upper Farringdon, Alton GU34 3EG
9th August: Bramdean House, Alresford. SO24 0JU
15th & 16th August: 21, Chestnut Road, Brockenhurst. SO42 7RF.
As is the current normal all tickets have to be pre- booked online, thus controlling numbers and eliminating the need for cash. All the gardens are available to book from the Monday prior to the opening.
ngs.org.uk and select South East to view the gardens open for the following week.
There may well be more gardens opening, as the month progresses - these will be available to view on the website.
Very soon we will be planning our gardens for 2021, so if you feel your garden is one that would be admired by the general public and you would like the opportunity to raise funds for our hard pressed Nursing, Health and Caring charities, who have really come to the fore during these past few horrendous weeks, why not contact me and we can arrange for a member of our team to visit your garden and discuss this with you.
Take Care and Keep Well
Best Wishes
