Netherbury Gardens Open
The 48th Netherbury Gardens Open took place on Saturday 11 & Sunday 12 June 2011 – see Events Diary for the 2012 dates.
In June each year, gardens in Netherbury, Dorset are open to visitors on a Saturday and Sunday to raise funds for the parish church.
Netherbury’s gardeners enjoy a variety of soils and aspects and there is a garden style to inspire every visitor, ranging from the grand to the gloriously wild – some open under the National Gardens Scheme while others are small and private. The admission ticket covers all the gardens for the whole weekend – under 12s can visit the gardens free of charge.
Eighteen or so gardens open on either or both days – and there are home-cooked lunches in the Village Hall, cakes and cream teas, and plant and produce stalls.
