We are not running a Sunday in the Garden on Sunday.
We had planned something to compensate for cancellation of the Autumn event a couple of weeks ago, but the forecast for this coming Sunday is not especially good. However we will have a small stall over the weekend to coincide with the NTS Halloween Trail for the sale of our 2026 Calendar and Alana’s homemade apple jellies!
