Garden Show Weekend in aid of East Anglian Air Ambulance
Woodgate Nursery of Aylsham will host its popular Garden Show Weekend on Saturday 17 May and Sunday 18 May, from 10 am – 5 pm in aid of the East Anglian Air Ambulance.
Want to achieve a lush lawn, beautiful blooms or even weave your own willow fence? Visitors can pick up tips, advice and inspiration on these topics and lots more from our garden designers, demonstrators and nursery staff.
Cast your vote for the best garden in show, as five local designers battle it out to take home the trophy. And enter raffles and prize draws to win up to £150 worth of gardening must-haves and vouchers to spend in-store.
A fun day for all the family is promised: budding young gardeners can get up close and personal with birds of prey from the Seal and Bird Rescue Trust, take part in the Nursery Treasure Trail and go home with seed kits ready to start growing their own.
Norfolk craft companies will be selling handmade gifts, and the garden centre’s tearoom, Purdy’s, will be serving a range of homemade cakes, light lunches, ice cream, teas and coffees throughout the weekend.
Last year’s event was a resounding success, with more than 3,000 people visiting, raising £648 for the charity.
Entry is free, but donations to The East Anglian Air Ambulance are welcome.

- garden designers Hall Landscaping & Design; Sue Bell Garden Design; and Emily Louisa Landscapes
