We have been extroadinarily busy this June and July we have attended as many markets as we could physically muster and have had a very succesful yet tiring couple of months. The weather has been kind (mostly) and the feedback from the people who bought our plants has been fantastic. The Gateshead Flower Show was a busy weekend and we thoroughly enjoyed being there and meeting some lovely people.
We have had many visitors to the Garden and although it is upsetting there is no cafe at present we decided with the current economic climate to just open the garden for people to vist and enjoy and bring a picnic and have some quiet time.
We have shown several people around the Garden who are looking to have there weddings with us which is all hugely exciting. We have a private function booked in August and a wedding booked in September I am crossing my fingers there will be nice weather for both.
We also have had five house and Garden Tours followed by a buffet in the conservatory - all the guests were very complimentary and enjoyed there time with us.
Hoping the weather will get better this August as the weeds are becoming a bit of a nightmare!!

I am certainly planning to visit the garden at Meldon shortly - I have fond memories painting the view from the hall back in the 80's and I am very curious to see if it has changed much over the years! You can see the painting at... http://www.wigham.org/blog
