Thank you for visiting our 2015 Open Gardens

Thank you to all our visitors this weekend. We hope you had a lovely time in our amazing little village and our gardens. The weather wasn’t on our side but you came out regardless.

We’d love to see you in four years time.

Keep up to date with photos and the follow-up publicity on our Facebook page Facebook.com/Flowton.suffolk or on our twitter feed @flowtonsuffolk

THANK YOU! (2015 event)

A massive thank you to all who helped and supported the Open Gardens and Flower Festival this weekend. Everything went so well, from the signs (especially the ‘You’re nearly there’ one), our hardworking catering team (and their washer-uppers), the team that manned the Church, our popular local historians, the bottle tombola team of wrappers and sellers, the gardeners and families, and our amazing florists. Thank you also to everyone who lent props for the flower displays, marquees, tables, chairs, bins and tablecloths! We couldn’t have done it without all of you.

I apologise if I have missed anyone. Such a great community team, I am proud to be part of our amazing village of Flowton….

Plant sales, 2015

Most of our plant sales will be at Riversdale where homegrown plants from Flowton residents will be on sale. Some other gardens will be selling plants as well.

Priory Plants of Hintlesham have a stall at Flowton Hall and will be selling their plants. Plenty of parking is available at the Hall.

Refreshments available

During the Open Gardens and Flower Festival we will be selling Ploughman’s Lunches in the Churchyard between 12noon and 2pm (in a marquee in case of inclement weather!). This includes a ham or cheese roll, salad, mayonnaise and a drink for only £3. Tea and coffee is also available separately.

Church Cottage is hosting the cream teas between 3pm and 5pm – a traditional scone with jam, cream and butter, and tea or coffee. In previous years we have sold out, especially if the weather is good, so come early!
