Have a party in your garden!

Invite your friends for a garden gathering on Sunday 12 October 2025

Garden Day is an annual movement for green fingered folk to celebrate the fruits of their labour with family and friends. Whether you have a rolling lawn, volunteer at a community garden or have a few plant boxes on your balcony, everyone is invited to participate. 

On Garden Day we invite you to take a break from the hard work of planting, watering, weeding, and mulching, and instead, celebrate your garden with a party. Your garden gathering could be anything from a lavish luncheon or afternoon tea to a picnic or simply relaxing with a good book in your favourite spot in the garden.

Most importantly, don’t forget to wear a flower crown!

So mark your calendar for Sunday 12 October 2025, and join us in celebrating our green spaces.
