25.01.2022 Our Open Gardens are over for another year. Galston Garden Club would like to thank all the garden owners for their support. The drought and then the heavy rain a week before the event, and then the terrible storm with hail on the Saturday night made the event more difficult. Thank you to everyone who visited the gardens. We raised a good amount of money, which has now been allocated to about 30 charities. The open days for 2019 will be 18/19/20 October. We would also like to thank all the businesses and local people who supported the event with help on the open days and donations of goods and services. Some have been supporting us since last century, and our very first Open Gardens.
