Open Day 2026 kicks off!

Our April Open Day kicked off the season on a Sunday – a bit of a change for us but an opportunity for people who can’t make it along to one of our usual Saturdays. Normal service will be resumed in May with the second Open Day of the year, on Saturday 9th May. Displays, tours and homemade refreshments abound!

In the meantime, our lovely garden is being prepared for the summer ahead. If you are interested in helping out in the garden, please see our Volunteers page for more info, we meet once a month during the growing season.

We couldn’t pass the opportunity to wish congratulations to the Sky Blues on promotion to the Premier League!
