What better way to spend a Saturday afternoon than having a BBQ in the garden. Everyone at Beyond the Wall has spent the last year working exceptionally hard to transform the walled garden, and with being open to the public during the week have been delighted to share the space with many people. The garden can of course be used at the weekend by private appointment with BTW in exchange for a donation to the charity.With the BBQ lit, guests, including head gardeners and local gardening celebrity Ellen Mary, were given a tour of the garden, and a talk on what the transformation has entailed.
Food was served and Pimms was drunk on the lawn in glorious sunshine, though with one looming cloud everyone moved over to enjoy the shelter of the marquee during a passing shower.
With goodbyes being said, it was great to be sent a link to Ellen Marys Blog a couple of days later with her account of the afternoon, you can read this at http://blog.ellenmarygardening.co.uk/blog.aspx
If you are interested in using the garden for your own function, please be in contact with us by email for details including facilities available and cost admin@beyondthewall.org.uk
