Maidenhead Open Gardens 2026
|
Maidenhead Rotary Club’s Open Gardens 2026 proved to be another wonderful success, bringing together garden owners, volunteers, visitors and the local community for a memorable weekend of beautiful gardens, friendship and fundraising.
Over the weekend of Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th June, visitors enjoyed exploring a diverse collection of private gardens across Maidenhead and the surrounding areas. This year’s event featured a delightful mix of both new and returning gardens, each offering something unique and inspiring for gardening enthusiasts and casual visitors alike. We were particularly honoured to welcome the Mayor of the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, Siân Adams, accompanied by her Consort, Tim Adams, who visited two of our participating gardens on Saturday. We were also delighted to welcome MP Joshua Reynolds, who visited two gardens on Sunday and met with garden owners, volunteers and visitors. The event attracted both new visitors and many loyal supporters who return year after year. Visitors enjoyed not only the beautiful gardens but also cream teas, refreshments, arts and crafts, and the warm hospitality that has become a hallmark of Maidenhead Rotary Club Open Gardens. None of this would be possible without the generosity of our garden owners who opened their gates to the public, our dedicated volunteers who gave their time so freely, and everyone who purchased tickets and supported the event. Funds raised from this year’s Open Gardens will be distributed to our chosen charities, helping support important local and national causes and continuing Rotary’s commitment to serving the community. |
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone involved. The enthusiasm, support and community spirit shown throughout the weekend were truly remarkable. Although we are still celebrating the success of this year’s event, planning has already begun for Maidenhead Rotary Open Gardens 2027. We look forward to making next year’s event even bigger and better, welcoming more gardens, more visitors and raising even more for charity. Thank you for helping make Maidenhead Rotary Open Gardens 2026 such a special success. Maria Scavetta Rotary Club President |
