What a fabulous evening we had at Elford Walled garden! … AND for once, it didn’t rain, or was cold, on our annual summer garden visit! The sun shone and we had an excellent and informative tour round the walled garden itself ….
and through the gate at the end, out onto the banks of the River Tame. Very picturesque. There was even a boathouse, which is also used as a bird hide.
Then through the sensory garden… the giants garden… the orchard and to the marquee where a scrumptious cream tea awaited us. Lots of tea/coffee,scones & homemade cakes. What an evening!
Thanks to all the volunteers who have worked tirelessly to bring the walled garden back to life, this is a wonderful community space & endeavour. And thanks also to Kate Britt for organising the evening – a good night was had by all. Elford walled garden is well worth a visit if you haven’t already been.
