Individual stall holders may accept cash or card payments. However, please note that the Restaurant and Abbotsbury Garden Shop is currently card only. Please bring your own bags/crates for plant purchases; you may return to your car with plants and re-enter the fair several times. Wildlife charities, Butterfly Conservation and, stone ornaments, willow makers & garden blacksmiths will be there on the day.
There is lots of space in the gardens and at the plant fair, so we hope to achieve the right balance between enjoyment and safety. We hope that it will be as successful and enjoyable as the 3 fantastic fairs in 2023. 50% of the profits support plant conservation charity work.
