The Organic Garden
Sarah Mead
Alongside our farms and staff canteen, we have an organic garden that’s open to visitors. It’s six and a half acres of ornamental and edible plants in a seasonal patchwork that we’ve been constantly evolving since we started more than 18 years ago.
Come along and see it for yourself and pop into our café while you’re here.

NGS Open Day
Every year we start our season with an NGS Garden open day and 2021 is no different! Our first open day is Sunday 18th April.
Entry must be pre-booked via the NGS website. There will be three 2 hour time slots with limited spaces on each slot and all proceeds from the entrance ticket will go to the NGS.
The Garden Café will be selling drinks and snacks, and the Garden Store will be selling plants, products and more – so bring a bag and a cool bag!
RHS Chelsea Flower Show
We can’t wait to bring our garden to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show in September. We’ll be showcasing organic gardening and championing the soil. We’ll even be using many of last year’s plants – we love to reuse and hate waste.
Last year’s show was virtual! Watch Tom demonstrate how to create an organic wildlife haven, hear about the Yeo Valley Organic Garden here in Somerset and find out about our original Chelsea plans for 2020 from Sarah.
