Crosspool Open Gardens is looking for new gardens

Crosspool Open Gardens sees proud local residents open up their private gardens to the public to raise money for charities.

This year’s event is on Saturday 7 July and marks the start of Crosspool Festival 2012. As well as a chance to look round many of the old favourites, the organisers are looking for new gardens to take part.

Participating gardens are featured in a Open Gardens paper programme. Profits from the sale of the programme are shared between charities nominated by participating gardeners, who can also raise funds themselves by selling plants and refreshments.

If you’re interested in putting your garden forward for consideration, contact Roger on 230 6194 and rogerkite40@tiscali.co.uk.
