A partnership event with Waddesdon Manor

Come and discover the four-acre walled garden, glasshouses and orchard at Eythrope; the private garden of the Rothschild family.  Enjoy a short introduction to the garden and history of the garden and a tour of the Kitchen Garden with garden guides.  A working garden on this scale is rare in the 21st century and Eythrope is legendary in the garden world for the excellence of the gardening and as a haven for traditional techniques that might otherwise be lost.  Transport provided.  Some steps and uneven surfaces. 

While at Eythrope, there will be an opportunity to purchase locally-pressed apple juice from the Eythrope orchard, and copies of Paradise and Plenty, Lady Mary Keen’s companion guide to the garden, lavishly illustrated with photographs by Tom Hatton.
