Our main fundraising event is the annual Hidden Gardens of Hadleigh event. This year it was held on Saturday 1st June 2024
This year 25 gardens were on show, including the famous garden at Benton End. The event attracted 960 visitors from as far afield as Bournemouth, Kent, Northampton – and even France! The event raised £6,000 for The Friends of St Mary's, contributing to the restoration and maintenance of our beautiful old church
The 2025 edition of the Hidden Gardens will be held on xxxx |
