We're excited to be an official partner for the Yeo Valley Organic Garden Festival on Thursday 17 to Saturday 19 September - a celebration of all things gardening sustainably, without trowelling on the heavy stuff!

Garden Organic members can get a 15% discount on tickets – plus, a free packet of mixed Heritage Seed Library beans – when they attend. And there’s lots for you to dig into:

On Thursday at 1.15pm, Fiona will be part of a panel discussion around ‘Futureproofing Your Garden in the Face of Climate Change' in The Germination Station.
On Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 12pm, our head of the Heritage Seed Library Catrina Fenton will be at the Glasshouse Gathering to explain how and why we conserve heritage varieties, how to get started with seed saving – and practical tips on how to save seed from some easy crops.
And on Saturday at 11.45am, Fiona will once again be at the Germination Station to outline some plants she loves and loathes as part of a fun Shed 101! This is inspired by Room 101, where least favourite things are put in, never to come out.
Raffle: There will be a raffle running throughout the festival in support of Garden Organic
Talks: Fiona will also be giving two talks during the festival.

Launched in 2025, the Yeo Valley Organic Garden Festival aims to encourage gardeners – young and old, novice and expert – to consider using their gardens as a climatic force for good.

The three-day event is a celebration of all things gardening – from practical compost tips to broader themes of climate conscious planting. It brings together an inspiring mix of talks, panels and hands-on workshops for growers.
