New in the Garden...

REFRESHMENTS

Saturdays and Sundays
3rd July to 19th September
11am to 4pm

We are very pleased to announce that visitors to the Botanic Garden can now enjoy refreshments on Saturdays and Sundays for the period of the sculpture exhibition. They will be available at weekends from 11am to 4pm from 3rd July to 19th September.

We hope visitors will find that this much needed facility will enhance their enjoyment of both the garden and its sculpture exhibition. If you are looking for a weekend activity this summer, the Botanic Garden offers 16 acres of the most diverse gardens and greenhouses in the East Midlands – indeed something for everyone in the whole family. The National Collection of fuchsias will shortly be coming into bloom and will be at its best from late July.
