Packed with inspiration and ideas for the Spring garden we will be hosting Forde Abbey’s Plant and Gardening Fair on Saturday 11th April.We have some fantastic specialist nurseries from the Southwest selling plants and excellent craftsmen with brilliant and beautiful gardening sundries from 10:30 AM – 3:00 PM. Many of our plant stalls are back by popular demand, but there will also be some new ones this year.
The growers are happy to chat about their plants and offer their expertise and share their enthusiasm, so do come along to see what you can add to your own garden for a splash of colour this spring – or just admire the beautiful plants on show!
The Plant Fair takes place at the beginning of our popular Tulip display, a lovely time to see the garden waking up from its winter hibernation. The Abbot's Table Cafe will be open throughout the day serving lunches, light bites and homemade cakes and bakes. Our award winning Gift Shop with some fantastic souvenirs will also be open, Eeles Pottery will be selling and showcasing some beautiful pottery too.
Our in house Plant Nursery is also open from 10.30am and it is fully stocked with Spring bulbs and a diverse range of herbaceous perennials, many rare and unusual. All the plants in our nursery are grown at the Abbey.
The gardens will remain open until 5:00 PM (last entry at 3:00 PM)
