Charity calling all gardeners

St Barnabas is calling all gardeners to help raise funds for the hospice.

Do you have a hidden gem of a garden here in the heart of Lincolnshire? 

The charity is looking for green-fingered folk to open their outdoor spaces this summer and make a meaningful difference in the community. 

“Whether your garden is humongous or humble, quirky or colourful, the chances ara if you’re passionate about your garden, others will be too,” said a charity spokesperson.

“Opening your garden through our programme is a wonderful way to share your gardening wisdom and achievements while inspiring others. By participating, you’ll connect with fellow garden enthusiasts and contribute to our work across the county.

“Through your ticket sales and refreshments (check out our Care For A Cuppa, which you can host at the same time), you’ll contribute to the compassionate care and support provided by St Barnabas Hospice.”

Some of the gardens already opening are listed below – others will be added to the list as the sign up to the fundraiser.
