About Scotland’s Gardens Scheme Open Garden: Grow Cook Inspire

Helen's small but mighty garden, is a haven for wildlife and biodiversity and her garden illustrates that you don't have to have acres of land to be able to grow a wide range of fruit, vegetables, cut flowers and also have space to entertain friends and family. It is a garden jam packed with personality, colour and vibrancy and you'll leave feeling uplifted come rain or shine.

Directions: Park on Ormonde Avenue or Ormonde Drive. Enter through the back gate, via the back lane, opposite from Netherlee and Stamperland Church. Follow the SGS yellow road signs.

Other details: Helen will be on hand to sign copies of her book. There will be a chance to create your own flower crown and design your own tote bag, through the art of flower pounding. There will be children's activities at this garden. Advance booking is essential so please visit the SGS website for further details.
