Community blooms: step into summer with a visit to a local garden

A number of local residents will be opening their gardens to the public this summer as part of the National Garden Scheme.

“The nine gardens that were open locally last year raised over £5,000 for charity. Not bad going for opening one day each! This year, locally, there are 18 gardens taking part, including four in the Woodford area. So, please visit at least one of the local NGS gardens, or if you’re planning a UK holiday, why not look up a garden near your destination?” said NGS area organiser Teresa Farnham.
