A notice to all of our wonderful residents that have entered our annual Garden Competition, this year’s judging day will take place on Saturday 26th July.
Our judge this year will be Alex Goodyear, Head Gardener from Tremenheere Sculpture Garden, who visited us earlier in the year to give a fantastic talk.
Our volunteers can’t wait to welcome Alex back and share the horticultural displays our vibrant town has to offer.

Have you had the chance to admire our stunning tiered planters?
This photo was taken by one of our volunteers whilst working as part of our watering team this week.
We are thrilled to have worked again with Damien and his team at Trevena Cross Nursery, who have carefully cultivated yet another stunning floral display.
Enjoy one and all!
