Join writer Libby Loughland for a creative adventure in the garden, using its sights and scents to spark your imagination.

You can create your own story, then explore the rest of the summer activities, including the ‘Cranford the Cat’ trail, Victorian dress-up, and traditional garden games and crafts.

If the weather’s not on our side, the storytelling will take place indoors. Don’t worry – the fun carries on whatever the weather.
