The rain hasn’t dampened our spirits here at The Hidden Gardens. It’s great to explore the Gardens in the rain, as the smells are even stronger. The lavender, which has only recently flowered, is especially sweet at the moment. Our administrator keeps ducking out the office to enjoy it!

Late last year, Andrea gave a tour to a group of students from St Bride’s Primary. They explored the many natural habitats of the Gardens; enjoyed the smells of the herb border and listened to the sounds of the birds that make The Hidden Gardens their home.

One of their favourite activities, surprisingly, was handling some of the woodlice found in the woodpiles. Our administrator is glad she was not present for this activity.

The students wrote Andrea thank you letters, which brightened her day! We love when people love the Gardens.
