In this section we present photos of the activities which take place in the Gardens on an ongoing basis - eg. cricket and national day celebrations - together with other substantive ad hoc activities, such as the repair of 35-Steps, and the rehab of Jackswalk and the Upper Garden Path. In addition we will show other activities, like guided Garden Tours, new tree plantings, lectures in progress, if or when these become available. If you have photos you would like to share, please contact us.
