The much-loved Lady Bay Open Gardens returns to the community social calendar this year on the 8 and 9 of July.
The organisers need just a few more gardens to make event a good size and are sending out a plea for any Lady Bay residents sitting on the (garden) fence to send in their application. The deadline for entering is Sunday the 30th of April.
Gardens of all shapes and sizes are welcomed, from established gardens to brand-new gardens just starting to take shape.

This will be a very special year marking the 30th anniversary.
The volunteer organisers are aiming to build on the amazing success of previous years and raise even more money for charities and other local good causes. Proceeds go to the Lady Bay Community Fund as well as various charities nominated by garden owners.
The events Chair Tony Papkiewicz said:
“We aim to have a fantastic mix of gardens contributing to this year’s extra special event.
“We are delighted to be back as we know how much the community love it.
“We would like to thank this year’s sponsors Rex Gooding, Moores Nurseries and John A Stephens for their support”.
