Each year in Spring the Berry & District Garden Club hosts the Berry Gardens Festival, in Berry, where some of the areas most spectacular gardens are open to the public to enjoy.
The Berry and District Garden Club website tells us that “It takes the whole club to stage the Berry Gardens Festival. The happiness that our visitors feel visiting Berry for its gardens is contagious. It is a most worthwhile and appreciated event.
We showcase gardens in Berry and around the surrounding district that are selected for their design, plant varieties and creativity. From rural landscapes to small cottage gardens in the town, there is always something new and inspiring to see. Each Festival raises thousands of dollars for local not-for-profit groups. Over the past 34 years, these funds have enabled the purchase of vital equipment, supported health and community programmes and enriched the lives of many in need. The 2024 Festival will be held from Thursday 17th to Sunday 20th October, 2024.”
