Lindfield in Bloom

Lindfield Front Garden Festival launched

Last year the Lindfield Open Garden event attracted more than 800 visitors and raised over £9,000 for St Peter and St James Hospice. The event has been cancelled this year, but to raise much needed funds for the Hospice, Lindfield gardening groups have teamed up to arrange a ‘Front Garden Festival’ through the summer. Full details are shown on our advertisement on page 57 and on our website at: https://lindfield-gardens.co.uk

The idea is for lots of the beautiful front gardens around the village to join in the Festival and for the whole community to view these from the pavement at a safe distance. A map of those selected for the ‘People’s Choice’ stage will be made available in mid-July and the public will make a People’s Choice for their favourite garden in each part of the village - and there will be a special prize for the best planter/window box/hanging basket. So, owners of all front gardens - large or tiny - are invited to join by sending an email with your name and address to fg@lindfieldhorts.org.uk (or phone Sue and Jim Stockwell on 01444 459363).

We hope to raise as much as possible, so please make a donation to the Hospice via this Just Giving page www.justgiving.com/fundraising/lindfieldfrontgardenfestival2020
