Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Open Garden at Boconnoc earlier this month — we hope you all enjoyed your time exploring the grounds! We’re thrilled to report that you have helped us raise over £1500 to support our work protecting Cornwall’s heritage.
Our events volunteers once again did a fabulous job helping set up, serve refreshments, direct traffic, and much more. We are incredibly grateful to them for all their hard work, and a special mention goes to Keith, our volunteer photographer, who spent the afternoon busily capturing the gardens on camera.
Thank you to Elizabeth Fortescue and the team at Boconnoc House and Estate for so generously opening their gates to help raise funds for our work and to Coodes Solicitors for sponsoring Open Gardens 2024. Thanks also go to historian and author Catherine Lorigan for her fascinating talk on the history of the estate.
Our next Open Garden is on Sunday 12th May at Trevince, near Gwennap, and we hope to see many of you there. The event runs from 10.30am – 4pm, and the last entry will be one hour before closing time.
Ticket prices are £6 if pre-booked online and £7.50 on the door. Under 12s go free and do not require booking. Well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome.
