Stody Lodge Gardens also opened in aid of the National Garden Scheme on Tuesday 21st May 2019. These charities fuelled busy garden lovers with delicious cakes, brownies, flapjacks, sandwiches, sausage rolls and scones.

Kate MacNicol of Stody Lodge Gardens, said: “We were so impressed by the quality of the wonderful homemade teas provided by the charities fundraising with us last year. All the volunteers worked incredibly hard but also had a lot of fun whilst raising fantastic sums for their individual causes. We are now organising our 2020 open days and would welcome charities to apply for a fundraising opportunity with us.”
