Best Neighbourhood Project

The quality and variety of planting is exceptional – from fruit and vegetable in polytunnels to ornamental gardens. Wildlife is key across the board and those tending the garden are able to learn skills and provide a beautiful and tranquil place to sit and reflect and to meet with visitors.
Best Pub in Bloom
Refectory
From the shady car park where nooks and crannies provide an abundance of wildlife interest of plants and insects customers walk through an inviting arch into a colourful garden where perennial borders are alive with bees and birds, with hanging baskets and a pretty living wall enlivening the seating areas. All beautifully cared for!
Rosamund Community Garden
Joint Best Wildlife Garden
Inspiring garden managed by a team of volunteers. They constantly push the boundaries of gardening in a eco sensitive way. They monitor and actively manage a large chalk down land meadow to keep at bay invasive species and protect a wild orchid population. In addition the outreach work that they are engaged in is commendable.
