Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Harringay open gardens?
A few weeks ago, at the seed swap event, a few of us were talking about the Open Gardens events which take place during spring and summer. And we got to talking about whether there would be any interest in having an informal version of our own - a day where a small number of us could have a nose around each others' gardens.
It would be aimed at people who are interested in finding out what can be done with a similar space/soil/aspect, or who are just curious about different gardens and what people have managed to do. The gardens wouldn't be remotely 'perfect' (certainly not mine) but I'd personally be really interested in seeing what other people have managed to do, talking about what does or doesn't work for them, and getting (or even giving) advice.
What do others think? I guess it would work by people expressing interest here and then us agreeing a date some time in June/July. Depending on how many people are up for it we could have specific time slots so that everyone who participates gets the chance to look at other people's gardens ..
What do you think - any takers?! I can offer up my recently unlawned garden to anyone who is interested ...

Really looking forward to nosing round some gardens. I'll see if I've got any spare seedlings and pot them up.

Ok, some possible dates. I've avoided the weekends either side of half term for obvious reasons. Am left with:
26 or 27 May
16 or 17 June
24 June (note 23 is South Harringay Infant School fair)
30 June or 1 July
Let me know what works and I'll choose the date that suits the majority.

Not May for me, but any time in June/July is fine. On a Sunday would be better still.

Hi - I can make these except 30th June. Prefer a Sunday as I take a class on Saturday mornings.

Hi Alison
Have we fixed any dates yet. Visitors are welcome to my wildlife garden any day of the week.
It's only small, as I described, but I'm sure will be of some interest.

Thanks all. 24 June looks the most promising but I have a bit of a concern about it being the day after the south Harringay school fair. So before confirming anything could those who haven't already done so let me know what Sunday 1 July looks like?
