Swanmore Open Gardens

SWANMORE OPEN GARDENS – 16/17^th July

We anticipate 7-10 gardens opening.  Parking is free and the Meon Valley Lions’ minibus will provide a free shuttle to all the gardens but visitors will be encouraged to walk the short distances to the gardens in the village centre.  Teas & delicious homemade cakes will be available in The Paterson Centre 2-5pm.  Gardens open at 1pm and tickets (£6) will be available from 12:30pm at The Paterson Centre.  Well behaved dogs are welcome on their lead.  The Paterson Centre is fully accessible however, the minibus is not and the gardens are just family gardens and wheelchair access may be difficult or even impossible.  The gardens range in size from 2 acres on the outskirts of Swanmore down to small gardens in and around the village centre, no matter what their size, all are delightful.  Many will have plants for sale and there will be a plant stall at The Paterson Centre.  Proceeds will shared by St Barnabas and Rowans Hospice, both of whose funds have been badly affected over the last two years.  For more information please contact jsharpe2016@hotmail.com and I will get back to you as a matter of priority.
