St Helens Secret Gardens, Sunday 4th June, 1.30-5pm Nine gardens will be opening, one for the first time, allowing hundreds of visitors the chance to peak behind walls and hedges to discover the hidden treasures beyond. In addition to horticultural treasures, there will be tea and cake at two venues (one at either end of the village). Parking will be available on the east green to allow easy access to all the gardens. A colour programme acts as your ticket and contains garden details, photos and a map. The programme is available to purchase prior to the event at St Helens Post Office and the Goose Bookshop as well as on the day at the St Helens East Green and the gardens themselves.
Entry for all the gardens is £5 per adult with under 12s free. The event is raising money for the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance. The HIOWAA is a charity which relies entirely on donations from the public and costs £15,000 a day to keep operational.
