Flowton in Flower

This event is resting for 2026
Sorry, but Flowton in Flower isn't running this year. We'll keep you posted about next year's event details when they are known, but in the meantime we include below details from a previous year to remind you about the event

 approx 9 gardens opened Flowton, near Ipswich, Suffolk
Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th June 2023
12.00noon to 5.00pm.

Our tiny Suffolk village - in the middle of nowhere but only a short distance from Ipswich - is opening its gardens along with a splendid flower festival for the first time in four years.

As well as a range of very different gardens to visit, there will be an amazing display of military vehicles, a local history exhibition, classic cars, a sale of gardening books and more.

The flower festival (open from 11.00am) will be in the village's delightful 13th century church, which has a superb new weathervane featuring two elephants.

Refreshments, lunches and cream teas will be available throughout the weekend.

Proceeds
Proceeds will go to help maintain St Mary's Church, Flowton, and to FIND (Families in Need), our local Ipswich food and furniture bank which provides crucial support to many local families and individuals in need.

Plant sales
There will be plants for sale at a couple of participating gardens.

Cost
£5.00 for adults, accompanied under 16s free.

How to get tickets / programmes
Tickets can be purchased on the day from the church or from some of the gardens that will be open.
