About the Festival

 

The New England Garden Festival is an annual not-for-profit event run by a dedicated volunteer Committee, supporting local communities across the New England region. Held in late October/early November, the Festival and accompanying New England Garden Trail raise funds for local charities and community organisations—with all money raised in each community staying in that community.

​
