Hello and thanks for taking a few moments to drop by and read my garden journal. This post covers National Gardening Week, Heritage Open Days, Sulgrave Manor, and a short update about my own plot at home – honestly I don’t seem to have had a spare moment – but it’s all been about gardens so I haven’t minded a bit!

Oh, and you presently find me writing outside in my garden, moving my little table around every once in a while to stay in the warmth of the sun – long may it last today!

I’m presently writing at the end of a pretty active and thought provoking National Gardening Week, which I’m glad to say encourages people to get their dose of green or ‘Vitamin G’. It wasn’t without a buzz of joy when I heard of this year’s theme for the week and the opportunity it presented to extol the virtues of gardens and gardening for wellbeing.
