Welcome to our 43rd Open Gardens Weekend. A large number of gardens will be open with lots of other lovely things to see. Many of you will have visited several times, but whether you are a regular visitor or this is your first time we do hope that you will have a most enjoyable day.

Should you start to feel weary please take the free bus around the village.

We have Brass Bands, Morris Dancing, art for sale in the Church together with a full musical program and lots more.

If you are feeling hungry or thirsty, stop either at the Priory Room, the Memorial Village Hall or for a BBQ in Garden No. 9. The lunches and teas are the best value in Suffolk and some folk return year after year just to sample these delicious offerings.
