Open Garden for Butterfly Conservation at Goldcrest and Waxwings

Thank you to all those who joined us for our open garden for Butterfly Conservation; to all those who helped; all those whose comments were so affirming or who sent us photos. £400 was raised.

Was a smashing day! Cake and tea on the lawn. Beautiful setting, so tranquil, dragonflies swooped over Georges pond....perfect❤

Wonderful day at a magic garden, with great people and yummy cakes! 11 Butterfly species, Toad, Common Newt and my first Slow Worm!! Lots of insects feasting on the wild meadows and pollinator plants in the gardens. We will talk about this for years. A Huge Thank You to Rob, Jill, Judith and Roger  and all the helpers.

I’ll not lie had a tear. Your dreams came true. Love to you all,it was a privilege to be apart of it .

We just want to say what a fabulous environment you have created and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Great work you have done. Today we went to buy wildflower seeds which we will scatter/sow. We have some photos to send but did not note the e mail to send them to! Also if you repeat your open garden event please let us know we have been telling people how wonderful your oasis is and we think more people would want to visit. Best wishes
