We couldn’t visit each other’s gardens during covid lockdowns but we could share them.  Welcome to Upton Bishop’s virtual open gardens.

Anyone could take part.  All they had to do was submit a maximum of six photos (in one go) of their garden  together with the first line of their address. They were then collated and posted on the website and social media for everyone to enjoy. It was our own Upton Bishop ‘Not’ Open Gardens. You could carry on submitting up to six photos throughout the summer as the gardens changed.

Pictures of individual flowers, glorious vegetable patches, wildlife, rolling vistas or the cream tea you would have been serving to visitors to your garden were all accepted..

These are the pictures we have received
