Looking at the weather forecast and wondering about Spring Fair this Saturday? Well, we're all optimists here, so just assume that yes, it's going ahead! Such a brilliant family day out, from Richmond Community Garden to Avebury House. We look forward to seeing you! And have a small favour to ask... If you can bring a cup, or use one from our cup library - instead of the plastic-lined takeaway ones - we would really appreciate it! The amazing Rachel from We are Richmond just got us some more ‘big cups’ from the also amazing St Vinnies - thank you! Or you can just come and have a Devonshire Tea in the house! 😊🤩 https://www.facebook.com/events/1238225297776473

Oh my gosh - it's just over a week til Spring Fair on Saturday 17th! 😍 As always, there is a huge amount of cool stuff happening. On the Avebury side we have Christchurch Archaeology Project and our own Heritage Festival display upstairs; downstairs is the Devonshire; Vintage Market Avebury House on the lawn; and in our back garden you'll find the fabulous Canterbury Horticultural Society working on their beautiful, drought-resistant garden. We'll have food vendors in the carpark too - don't forget to bring a reusable cup for your coffee!
