Marchington Open Gardens

 approx 11 gardens open Marchington, near Uttoxeter, Staffordshire
Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th June 2023
11.00am to 5.00pm

Come and join us at our open garden event in our pretty village of Marchington on the border of Staffordshire and Derbyshire.

There will be a variety of gardens to visit and some of them will be new additions to the event.

Refreshments will be available at several locations including ploughman's lunches, tea and cake, scones with delicious jam and cream, ice creams, and a tipple. Our community shop will be hosting a breakfast BBQ to start your day from 9.00am.

The Open Gardens will form part of our very popular Marchington Festival which will include scarecrows, vintage and military vehicle display, food and craft fair, daft dog show, church photography exhibition, gardeners' question time, live music, family games and more.

We are pleased to say we will be offering free shuttle buses to get around the gardens although it's a lovely village to walk around too.

Proceeds from the Open Gardens event will go to support the Community Shop which run by volunteers.
