CHENIES MANOR ANNUAL PLANT FAIR, SUNDAY JULY 16,2023

This visit has been strongly recommended by several members, and in particular by our member Gerald, so I am sure this will be a day out that will be well worth joining!

Because our aim is to attend the plant fair, we are booked to arrive as the event opens at 09:30 to get the best opportunity to choose and buy from the wide range of stalls and plants that will be there.

“Chenies Manor House annual plant fair hosts over 80 specialist growers and nurseries and local artisan stalls. 

A wonderful day to browse amongst expert horticulturalists, garden items and so much more. 

Lunch is available and Tea is served in the Manor gardens or our Garden Room.”
