About

Garden Day is an annual movement for green fingered folk to celebrate the fruits of their labour with family and friends. Whether you have a rolling lawn, volunteer at a community garden or have a few plant boxes on your balcony, everyone is invited to participate. 

On Garden Day we invite you to take a break from the hard work of planting, watering, weeding, and mulching, and instead, celebrate your garden with a party. Your garden gathering could be anything from a lavish luncheon or afternoon tea to a picnic or simply relaxing with a good book in your favourite spot in the garden.

Most importantly, don’t forget to wear a flower crown!

So mark your calendar for Sunday 20 October 2024, and join us in celebrating our green spaces.
