Again this year the Gardens are Open at my house for Charity. This is not a Zed meet as such, just a charity event for Both the National Gardens Scheme and also the Haffner orchestra, which is a local Orchestra based in Lancaster.

 

All events have plenty of parking but this may be in a fairly flat field – so judgement call on cars getting in and out. Tractors on standby if needed!

 

The garden is not flat, so if you are bringing people with walking difficulties they may not be able to get around the entire garden.

 

We should hopefully have the the railway running this year again.

 

At very least the NGS ones will have teas coffees and cakes but the Haffner Orchestra event should have some as well!
