Scotland’s Garden Scheme Open Day

Join us on Saturday 15th August as we showcase our beautiful Gardens and raise money for local mental health charity Stepping Out. This is our 4th year taking part in this established event series and we look forward to welcoming you for a fun-filled celebration of our Gardens, and all that we grow in them.

Enjoy homemade bakes on the lawn, buy freshly cut flowers, take-away cakes, produce and preserves created using produce from our Gardens.

There will be garden tours at 12pm and 3pm, a botanical casting exhibition and free minibeast trail for children.

The Gardens

Our gardens comprise a series of themed spaces designed for year-round interest. We adopt sustainable practices including a ‘no dig’ approach. Explore our perennial meadow with swaying grasses and fruit trees. See incredible edibles in the potager and polytunnel complete with grapevine, colourful cutting gardens, a wildlife area with willow tunnels, stumpery and pond. Our ornamental borders brim with monochrome and textural plants and our water-saving garden features drought tolerant species in shades of blue, rust and orange. Visit our artist-in-residence in the potting shed and take wee ones on a minibeast hunt. Come wander, sit and enjoy. There is so much to see!
