The Gardens Trust
Join us for some special in-person events:
A trip on 29 August to Charlton House and Garden, offered in partnership with the London Gardens Trust. Tickets are selling fast! This will be followed on 25 October by a London talk on the making of the Charlton Garden from 1607 to 1925, by historian Dr Stella Butler.
Two visits to Gravetye Manor Gardens in Sussex, on 5 and 19 September. Note: these trips have very limited places and are strictly for members of the national Gardens Trust only. Please contact us if you’re not sure whether you’re a member.
In addition, two of our Autumn online series are now available for booking, with more to come. The second series of our History of Gardens from 10 September will explore 17th-century gardens. We’re hoping to re-run the first series for those who missed some or all of the talks this Spring; let us know if you’d be interested.
Gardens and the Written Word from 2 October will explore how authors including Shakespeare and Jane Austen have used gardens and plants in their writing.
Further Ahead:
Look out for our new book Unforgettable Gardens, published this Autumn by Batsford Books. We’ll be running online, and in-person launch events this October, with discounted copies of the book available for all attendees.
We’re already booking into 2025; save the date for a special behind-the-scenes visit to the treasures of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew on 27 January.
