Submission Criteria
We have to be sensible about the kind of event that we post on this site. Not all garden and plant-related events can be listed on this site - the task is too big.
Our core aim is to promote town and village open gardens events, so before you add your event, please determine if it's suitable for inclusion here.
Please feel free to add:
- Town or village open gardens events supporting charities or local causes
- Main town or village open gardens events supporting NGS charities
- Individual or small groups of gardens where the admission money supports charities or local causes
Please do not add:
- NGS gardens unless it is a town or village-wide open gardens event
- Village fetes, galas, May Days etc unless part of an open gardens event
- Flower shows or plant sales unless part of an open gardens event
- Commercial gardens or nurseries unless supporting a specific open garden event for charity
- Plant Society events unless supporting a specific open garden event
- Stately homes, National Trust properties etc unless supporting a specific open garden event for charity
- Gardens where the proceeds of the event do not go to charity or local causes
NGS Gardens
- If you are part of several NGS gardens that open as an event group, please go ahead and submit your event details.
- Individual NGS gardens - please contact us by email in advance.
In summary:
Your open gardens event needs to:
- have as its main focus a garden or gardens that will interest visitors
- give proceeds from admission, plant sales etc to charities or local good causes
- include a clear statement as to where events proceeds are directed
If your event doesn't meet these requirements, then it probably isn't suitable for inclusion here, but if you're in any doubt, just contact us at Open Gardens and we'll do what we can to advise.
