The Cottage Garden Society at the Malvern Spring Festival

The Cottage Garden Society at the Malvern Spring Festival: The Cottage Garden Society team will be exhibiting at the RHS Malvern Spring Festival from the 9th to the 12th of May after an absence of four years. Their mission? To share all the benefits that the CGS offers to those who love all things gardening!

Sue Clarke, Chair of the CGS says, “If you enjoy meeting like-minded people, visiting gardens, enjoying talks from experts, collecting and growing from seeds, taking photographs and reading a quarterly magazine filled with hints and tips from both ordinary gardeners and experts then joining The Cottage Garden Society will give you all these things and more!”  Sue continues, “We are really looking forward to attending The Malvern Spring Show after an absence of four years. This show is one of the first of the year and really inspires people to get ‘growing’.

Volunteer members from the local CGS Cotswold Group and friends are working hard behind the scenes to build a display that will appeal to everyone from children and beginner gardeners to the most experienced ones. The CGS display entitled ‘Grow it in Pots’ aims to inspire everyone to see how easy it is to grow plants from seeds and create a colourful and eco-friendly display of blooms, fruits, vegetables and herbs.

Sue continues, “Thinking about the biodiversity of the creatures which live in our garden spaces, bee and pollinator plants and introducing bug hotels can provide a good starting point. Even if you only have a window box or container anyone can grow in the ‘Cottage Garden Style’ with not only flowering plants, but also fruits, vegetables and herbs.

The Cottage Garden Society stand will be found in the Floral Marquee.
