Call for volunteers! The gardens are improving, however, Kevin and the team still have a lot to do to get the gardens back in shape. If you fancy spending a few hours in the peacefulness of Cally then please let us know? Our next big tidy up day is Saturday 23rd of March.

Today, Kevin received some fantastic photographs of Cally Gardens taken over the last 10 years. Even better, some of the photographs show plants that are maybe still lost under their neighbours and yet to be discovered and some pictures also include their labels!

Kevin has a lot of work ahead as he works to restore Cally Gardens. This is the shade border which sits outside the walled garden. Untouched for many years.

[Cally Gardens and Kevin Hughes Specialist Plants @CallyKevin]

Cally is more than just a walled garden, we have 3 hectares of broadleaf woodland which will be at the centre of our wildlife garden.

@Basil_Labels Fantastic!

[Cally Gardens and Kevin Hughes Specialist Plants @CallyKevin]

Well what a wonderful surprise! Over 100 people supported Kevin today and attended his past and present tour.
Thanks to all who came and thanks for being so patient in the plant centre queue.

3rd March, 2pm - Join Kevin Hughes for a one off tour of the amazing and exotic plant collection at Cally. Kevin, who has only been the custodian since May 2018, says that the tour will also feature the changes that he has made already at Cally Gardens. https://t.co/27piox3JvG

Only two days until we open! Busy, busy, busy planting, weeding and getting the paths and drive ready. Visitors are going to see that a lot has changed since 2018.
