Queen's Green Canopy Platinum Jubilee tree planting celebrated at Farnham Museum

It was lovely to meet the volunteer garden team at Farnham Museum and hand over our plaques marking the planting of fruit trees presented by the Surrey Gardens Trust to commemorate the Queen’s Green Canopy, Plant a tree for the Jubilee initiative. This is a beautiful garden space, immaculately maintained by this enthusiastic team. Open to the public and also home to the Garden Gallery: www.farnhammaltings.com/museum. We look forward to supporting the Museum with future projects in the garden.

If you work in a public garden and are looking for funding do consider our Small Grants Scheme: www.surreygardenstrust.org.uk/grants.

Congratulations to the Farnham Museum

Congratulations to the Farnham Museum

We have a worthy winner of our Surrey Gardens Trust: Let’s Plant a Tree for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Competition. We are delighted to be giving an award to Farnham Museum garden following an application from their team of seven gardening volunteers who meet weekly to care for the garden. The garden was restored to a new design in 2008 and is thriving save for two of the fruit trees. The award will replace these two trees, which are a key element of the design. We look forward to reporting on progress once the trees are planted in late November.
