On the 18th of May, our community came together to celebrate the Spring Fling, a day for its vibrant energy and beautiful blooms.
ShowGardens
The ShowGardens were undoubtedly a highlight of the day. Each garden was a masterpiece, meticulously designed by SRUC Horticulture and Design Students. The ShowGardens have been donated to Gorebridge, and you can pop along and see them anytime.
