What’s On
Welcome to our calendar for 2026. Our most regular and ever-popular events are the Farmers’ Markets held on the 1st Saturday of every month (except January). Then there’s our annual Plant Lovers’ Day in May where we welcome 25 specialist plant nurseries to sell direct to you together with selected non-nursery gardening stands all raising funds for charity. We hold three Gift Fairs a year, a few evening events plus special events in conjunction with our shops and services on site. Check back regularly for full information and to see detailed event information.
