Our next event is a talk by Ed Fairey on the History of National Garden Scheme Gardens, from the start of the charity in 1927 to the extraordinary 2020 when all gardens had to close for part of the year, this talk includes how the fashion for gardening has changed over the years, who has typically opened their garden for charity, and how a garden shouldn’t be judged by its size. Our speaker, Ed Fairey, illustrates his talk with gardens from around the country but there is of course a special emphasis on Essex gardens. Ed is also a highly skilled gardener and garden designer who has, for the last few years, been developing his three-acre garden in the north east of Essex. He has opened his garden for the National Garden Scheme for a number of years and is part of the NGS Essex volunteer team.
Entry: Members and non-members FREE. £1 for refreshments at the end of the evening.
