| The Plantation Garden |
On May 24th we
will be holding a garden festival at the beautiful Plantation Garden on Earlham
Road, Norwich. Shortly we will be putting a page on this blog dedicated to this
project so you can find out more. In the meantime we've received the exciting
news that the garden festival is now part of the Chelsea Fringe, a first for
this region!
Here’s a little bit about
the Chelsea Fringe:
Now in its third year,
the Chelsea Fringe is an alternative gardening festival based across the UK and
beyond -- celebrating everything from guerilla gardeners, community projects,
large-scale installations, performance art, food events, street happenings,
performances and much more in between. It's an open-access fringe festival, which means
that if it's about plants, gardens, flowers or landscape, and it's interesting
or original and quirky -- then it's in. The Chelsea Fringe is fringe to the RHS
Chelsea Flower Show -- but it’s different because it spreads far and wide,
covering everything that could be conceivably linked with gardens, plants,
landscape and environment. The
three weeks of the 2013 Fringe covered more than 250 events and attracted more
than 162, 000 visitors, and included a range of installations at iconic
Battersea Power Station, a remarkable garden made out of a disused gents toilet in
Peckham and a BBC Gardener's Question Time Fringe special from Hoxton Hall.
