With great weather, home-made scones and stunning gardens it was hardly surprising that we had a record attendance at this year’s open gardens. Garden owners and volunteers can be justifiably proud of their hard work and resultant success. The event is organised by Parwich & District Horticultural Society. The bumper proceeds will be used to underwrite the main Flower & Vegetable Show in September, and then the Society will allocate support for local groups and causes.
Here are a few photos I took around the Memorial Hall, but, if any readers have photos of the gardens, please do send them in to the Blog (parwich@hotmail.co.uk):

If you missed the plant stall on Sunday, there will be a second chance to get some of the locally grown plants that were there on Saturday. The Open Garden surplus and plenty of different plants will be in the Wakes Saturday village Stall Trail at Church Farm in Creamery Lane.
Saturday’s proceeds will be split between the Horticultural Society and St. Peter’s.
