Welcome to Yorkshire’s Gardens 2022
We are delighted that so many of our garden owners continue to support us and welcome visitors
to their gardens after two difficult years for us all. We are also thrilled to introduce 15 new gardens to
explore this year, bringing our total list to 103, including several village groups.
Thanks to the generosity of these garden owners, our volunteers and visitors, the National Garden
Scheme in Yorkshire raised over £150,000 in 2021, contributing to the national annual donation of
over £3 million to our beneficiaries. Details of our main beneficiaries are on page 2.
Thank you to everyone who helped make 2021 such a successful year.
We have another great variety of gardens to visit this year - from small town gardens and allotments
to large country estates. Most open on specific days and more than 50 open By Arrangement for
friends, families or groups for a bespoke private visit.
We are always interested in possible new gardens, and would be delighted to hear from anyone who
may consider opening for us. We are also keen to increase the number of volunteers in our county
team to promote and support our garden openings. If this appeals to you, please see our notice
below.
Once again, we would remind everyone to CHECK ONLINE before setting off to visit a garden.
Openings and information are subject to change, sometimes at very short notice. Please visit our
website, download our App or follow our social media @yorkshirengs for the latest information.
Enjoy your garden visits!
With every good wish from the Yorkshire county team.
Would you like to join our team of friendly volunteers?
Everyone in our Yorkshire team is a volunteer and we would welcome
some extra help to support our open gardens and fundraising.
If you love gardens, have a talent for organisation and enjoy meeting
and talking to people, we’d be delighted to hear from you. We are also
particularly keen to recruit people with specific experience of social media
and publicity as well as anyone with good photography skills.
Take a look at our website for more information and if this sounds like you,
contact one of our County Organisers listed on page 3.

UNCLE TOM’S® ROSE TONIC
What roses have been waiting for…
This new liquid plant food not only feeds roses but also promotes healthier
growth and dramtically improves disease resistance. Used and recommended
by professional growers -your roses will love it!
How it works: Roses will benefit from the simple power of potassium
phosphite, a nature-identical food. Used every week or two during the
growing season, Uncle Tom’s® Rose Tonic is tanslocated rapidly to all parts of
the plant through leaves and roots and delivers the essential elements of
phosphorus and potassium to where they are most needed. The improved
uptake of P&K counteracts the effects of soil fixation to optimise plant growth
conditions, especially at times of rapid growth. It helps plants to green up quickly – yet contains no nitrogen,
which often gives lush growth that is prone to disease.
Independent research has shown that potassium phosphite is one of the building blocks of life and provided
it is pure, it can promote healthy plant growth and improve the yield and quality of almost every crop grown
in the world.
Uncle Tom’s® Rose Tonic can be used as a drench or foliar spray. One litre will treat approximately
100 rose bushes for a season.
Also Available as Uncle Tom’s Plant Tonic for all garden plants and vegetables
available from:www.naturalgardensolutions.co.uk Available Nationwide in over 100 Garden Centres
