Many GFGS members, and others, open their gardens to the public in aid of charity. Some are opened as part of the National Gardens Scheme, which is commonly known as the "Yellow Book". When it becomes available, the national book can be purchased from all good bookshops. Smaller copies, covering specific counties, are often available from Garden Centres and some member clubs.
Other gardens are opened without becoming part of the scheme. We are happy to list both NGS and non-NGS gardens on these pages but we MUST be able to establish that we have permission to publish their details here.
(GFGS provides this information in the belief that it is correct but cannot be held responsible for errors).
