Old Green Gage, given by @NGSOpenGardens
to Shandy Hall #Gardens in 2012 for opening 30 years - laden with fruit this year. We believe the #greengage had its first literary mention in #TristramShandy. #ShandyHall and Gardens open this weekend and Bank Holiday Monday. All welcome!

On Thurs 8th May Shandy Hall gardens are promoting Wildlife Gardening with @yorkswildlife.bsky.social. The total area covered by gardens in this country exceeds that of nature reserves. Even with a tiny plot it's easy to get started and apply for a YWT Award - we could achieve a lot!

We are awash with apple blossom and the lilac is about to burst - a great time to visit #ShandyHall #gardens and buy some lovely #plants, and #books in our big sale

Shandy Hall Gardens now have a Gold award for Wildlife gardening. We encourage everyone to apply for an award whatever the size of your garden. Gardens in the UK cover a greater area than that of all the nature reserves. Think what we could achieve! @yorkswildlife.bsky.social #wildlife #gardening
