Festival of Open Gardens for Katherine House Hospice 2016

Announcements

Good morning residents, I am writing to find out if any home owners would be willing to participate in opening their gardens for Katherine House Hospice this year? 2016 marks the 25th Anniversary of the opening of Katherine House. I have done this for the past 3 years running now and have had good support.
However in order to make it extra special I would like to find 2-3 home owners who would like to join me on Hanwell Fields and open their gardens too. Last year the Festival of Open Gardens raised £11000 towards palliative care for the the hospice and local community.
Garden opening would be for 1 day for a collection of say 3-4 gardens on HF. I am happy to organise it and get the publicity and details to whoever wishes to take part. any questions then please get in touch. Many thanks.

Hanwell Fields Gardening Club

Announcements, The Gardening Club

I have added a Gardening Club to this page for any residents who would be interested in forming a group for the benefit and enjoyment of anything garden related.

Naturally in order for the club to grow we need members to join us and then we can start looking at events etc for the group to partake in.

I am also happy to answer any gardening questions and queries or if you need help with a particular problem in your garden.

Such events can include, Garden talks, visiting local gardens not normally open to the public, garden shows like Chelsea, BBC Gardeners World Live  and Hampton Court, Planting demonstrations, how to get the best from your garden, how to make your garden low maintenance, lots of ideas i have and would happily ask anyone interested to join and see where things lead.
