This is the next fundraising plan - to open my garden for a charity day in June 2015.
I have a fairly big garden - 1/2 acre - and don't get me wrong it is very very far from perfect - but it has great views and anyway people are always nosy and just want to see what you have.
There is a veg plot and a pond, shrubs, lawn and a wildflower area in progress.
With teas, plant, book and cake sales I am hoping that we can raise more with 2 days work than a week of tombolas etc. and we will reach a different audience - one that will just help with funding. Here is one little pic. Besides - promising to open it up will make me get on with the hard work! :-)

Ah, see? Now that all those folks have had a sneak preview, they'll know it'll be worth paying admission to come see it later!
More tea and cakes!!
omigosh! I love checking out other peoples' gardens. I'd gladly pay double for the privilege of snooping through yours.
Ha, ha - that's the plan! One of our fence panels blew down allowing a good view into the garden - I wish I could have charged all the people who were peering through the gap! :-)
I will try to put up more pics of the good and the bad bits - so you can have a virtual tour. :-)
What a great idea ! I would love to 'snoop' through your garden :-)
