July Events
It's all happening at Barnsdale! Every Sunday during July and August, we're offering family events, free with Garden entry.
A special day of informal walks and talks hosted by writer, broadcaster and rose fan Stuart Dixon.
So if you’re looking for a particular variety or just love roses, join Stuart to tour the Gardens and learn more- there’s no booking necessary and you’re welcome to join him for as long as you like.
Join us for fun on the lawn, where there will be retro games to play and Pimms to sip.
A special day of informal walks and talks hosted by Radio 4’s Matthew Biggs.
Tilly Rose, local textile artist, will also be demonstrating how we can use plants to dye fabrics and show us other uses for plants and nature within textile projects.
Join Sally Cunningham to find out which garden plants and wild flowers are best for bees. Leicester and Rutland Bee Keepers Association will also be around with an observation hive to show you what bees get up to.
Just want to come for a spot of retail therapy and a great lunch or afternoon tea? Entry to the Barnsdale Gardens Gift Shop, Nursery and Tea Room is free.
