Our 3rd Garden
Festival was a great success and we would like to offer a great big
hearty "Thank You" to all who helped make it happen, especially to
our speakers and stallholders, and to all our visitors who seemed to
be having a lovely time.
The sun shone, the stalls looked brilliant, the
food and music was great and the talks were all well attended and thoroughly
enjoyed.
We are leaving this site up-and-running,
until we start to prepare for next year's festival, so that visitors
can continue to access all the stallholder information amassed over
the previous months.
We look forward to seeing you again next year.
This year, as well
as all the usual wonderful plants, the emphasis is on food
quality,
the environment, ‘food
miles’, and an increasing interest in growing
food and self-sufficiency.
We are delighted
to welcome to the Festival, Terry Walton, ‘Allotment
Doctor’ from BBC
Radio 2’s
Jeremy Vine's Show. Terry will be hosting a discussion seminar
with Richard Fishbourne of Bugs and Beasties.
BBC Hereford &Worcester's Sunday gardening
show will broadcast live from the festival.
Last year’s Festival attracted more
than
2,500 visitors who enjoyed
over 50 exhibitors, informative
and engaging talks, local and organic lunches
and teas, a beautiful setting,
ambient music, imaginative children’s
activities and much more. And this year we will build on that success
- we have over 60 exhibitors booked!
