Open Gardens in Marple 2023 for Cancer Research UK

This popular open gardens event is returning next year!

Save the dates: Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th of July 2023.

We are delighted to welcome back many of the gardens that participated in the first Open Gardens in Marple in 2018. We are seeking new gardens, sponsorship, two or three new committee members, and offers of active assistance both before and during the event.

Would you like to contribute to the work of Cancer Research UK?
If so we would love to hear from you!

Many thanks to Lentils and Lather for offering us a meeting room.
