Fota House Plant and Garden Fair

Sunday 11^th April 2010 at Fota House and Gardens

 On Sunday, 11^th April 2010, Fota House and Gardens will host its annual “Fota House Plant and Garden Fair”

 It is expected that fifty or sixty specialist nurseries will attend and provide an opportunity for visitors to purchase unusual and special plants, including rare Trees, Shrubs, Alpine, Herbaceous and Water Plants etc. at reasonable prices.  Retailers providing Garden Furniture, Pots, Sculptures, Ornaments and Tools will also be invited to attend, thus enabling the people to buy everything they need for their Gardens.

The Fair will run from 11.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m. and catering facilities will be available in Fota House and on site throughout the day.

There will also be an opportunity for those attending to walk around the beautiful Gardens and Arboretum at Fota and to visit the newly renovated Fota House and see the recently hung collection of pictures which represents the third most significant public collection of Irish art in the State.

 For all those with an interest in Gardening, this is an event not to be missed.

Volunteers from the Friends of Marymount Hospice will assist with the running of the Fair and fifty per cent of the profits of the day will be donated to this very worthy charity.

Admission:  €8.00
