About Hampshire National Garden Scheme

The National Garden Scheme is an extraordinary charity. Through the generosity of over 3500 garden owners across England and Wales who open their gardens to the public and our thousands of visitors who visit these gardens, we are able to donate an incredible £3m to national nursing, care and health charities every year. Here in Hampshire we have over 120 gardens to visit of all shapes and sizes, each of them unique in its own way. Whether you are looking for a formal garden, a plantsman's garden, a tropical garden, a wildlife friendly garden or just something quirky and different you will find them here. Hampshire National Garden Scheme has a small pool of experienced, committed garden owners and county team members who will deliver this informative talk in your chosen area.
