Open Gardens &
Summer Festival

Marton cum Grafton Open Gardens & Summer Festival is a much loved annual event that invites visitors to explore a beautiful and varied collection of private gardens throughout our charming village. From colourful cottage borders, tranquil lawns to inspiring planting ideas and hidden green spaces, each garden offers it's own unique character and a warm welcome from the residents who so generously open them for the day. It is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the very best of village life and take in the beauty of the season.

​

More than just a garden trail, the Open Gardens & Summer Festival is a true community celebration, with activities and attractions for all ages. Alongside the gardens, visitors can enjoy local art displays, family friendly entertainment, refreshments and our popular fundraising events including the raffle and charity auction. 

​

Every element of the day is organised by volunteers and supported by local businesses and residents, helping to raise vital funds for local charities and good causes.
