The next Ford House Garden Fair focussing on plants and gardens will be held on Sunday, November 6th, 2011 at Ford House, Bridgetown, as part of the Spring Festival of Country Gardens. The Fair used to be called The Lively Plant Fair.

The fair, in its eighth year, is held on the river-flat adjacent to the Blackwood River in the grounds of Ford House. On sale will be garden related products, plants, new tools and artefacts. The 40+ stalls are unique, stylish and attractive. Some of the stallholders include Melville & Swiss Rose Farms, Rainbow Daylilies, fuschias and MacAtool Garden Tools.

The Ford House Garden Fair runs from 10.00am to 3.00pm .

During the Last Spring Fair in 2010, over 600 people attended from all over the state.

The Ford House Garden Fair is a delightful opportunity to visit a historic garden, mingle with many garden and plant specialists and enjoy beautiful, homemade food and cakes at the Tongue & Groove Café and within the grounds. It is also worth visiting some of the many wonderful local gardens which will be open to the public during that weekend.

It is an idyllic location, with plenty of room for each stall to display their wares.
