From 30 August to 1 September, the BBC Gardeners’ World Autumn Fair (in association with English Heritage) will descend on the scenic grounds of Audley End House and Gardens. For seasoned gardeners and green-fingered amateurs alike, this jam-packed event has something for everyone. Hear from special guests including Adam Frost, Joe Swift and Rachel de Thame on the BBC Gardeners’ World Magazine Stage, find your inspiration at the Get Growing Stage, or simply browse the many nurseries and plant stalls before stopping by the Good Food Market. “The BBC Gardeners’ World Autumn Fair is a really special event for our team and we like to get stuck in!” says Louise Ellis, head gardener at Audley End. “We get to share our beautiful grounds and gardens with thousands of keen garden fans and visitors, our trainees will be showcasing their wonderful Shared Ecologies Border, and we’ll be on hand to answer any questions. It’s going to be a great weekend!” Tickets to the fair also include full access to Audley End House and Gardens – and well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome.
