Open Garden, Evening Dinner: 17th July!

Posted by editor on Friday, 9 July 2010

The Garden House is once again opening its garden gate in aid of a local charity – this year we are raising funds for RISE (Refuge, Information, Support, Education), a local charity supporting women, children and young people affected by domestic abuse.

Join us for a brilliant afternoon! There will be stalls selling all sorts – including garden tools, jewellery, home made gifts, culinary delights, and a multitude of gardening items.

Tea and cakes will be on sale too, and we have our Grand Auction at 4pm!  Auction prizes include:

  • One week in a villa on Fuerteventura
  • Large abstract painting by Sussex artist Bobby Boud
  • Deckchair with customized patchwork seat
  • Photo session in a local studio
  • Patchwork quilt
  • Coffee machine and coffee set
  • Two complementary planted containers
  • Voucher for a hair cut in a local salon
  • Bridgette’s Friday gardeners – working in your garden for one day!
  • And many other items, including ‘ingredients for a screaming orgasm’ (don’t ask!)…

Garden opens at 2.30pm

Entrance fee: £2 per adult

We are also holding a Garden Dinner Party, which starts at 7pm.  Why not book a table with friends?  The cost of the dinner will be £20 for a delicious three-course meal and a glass of wine (we will have wine available for donation should you need extra!) – and during dinner we’ll be serenaded by live band Vinyl Riff!

Dinner menu:

  • Starters: roasted Piedmont peppers, OR mushroom, sherry and walnut pate, OR watermelon and goat’s cheese salad
  • Main course: organic Cheddar, zucchini and roasted red onion quiche, OR Malaysian fish curry, OR tortilla with fried beans served with guacamole and salsa
  • Dessert: free-range homemade meringue nests with summer fruits, OR chocolate brandy refrigerator cake, OR fresh fruit platter
