This Saturday 26th July is the Mid Devon Show 2014. We will be displaying our plants as usual in the Flowers & Garden Marquee, its always a great day out and there is so much to see and do for all the family. Here is a little sneak preview of our stand, but if you want to see the whole thing you will have to come and see us!

This Sunday (11th May) Down Farm Produce from Stoodleigh will be at the Nursery from 10am until 12 noon, they’ll have organic bread, pasties, cakes and of course scotch eggs! So come down and look at all the beautiful plants available in the nursery and then buy something for your tea from them !

Preparations are on the way for our Easter Arts & Crafts Market to be held here at Cove Garden Nursery on 20th April Easter Sunday from 1oam to 4pm. Pottery, Glass, Jewelery, Handmade Dog Treats, Woodworking, Ironmongery, Candles, Prints & Cards are among the stalls already signed up as well as food on the day from Pitmans Farm Hog Roast and refreshments from Cosmic Wheels mobile catering van. All this on top of our usual selection of plants and garden sundries and our very own resident Glass Artist Helen Fonnereau, this is sure to be another great event.
There is still limited space available for any Artists & Crafters still looking for an outlet to showcase their work this Easter Sunday. Get in touch on 01398 331946 or email enquiries@covegardennursery.co.uk to be part of this event.

Its that time of the year again, the Mid Devon show is upon us! Here is a sneak preview of our stand, the theme this year is ‘Seed to Feed’, it’s always a challenge to come up with new ideas and beautiful plants but think it looks OK, in fact the whole marquee is looking very colourful with the Tiverton Flower Club floral arrangements and the display put on by Tiverton Garden Club. There is plenty to do at the show, a packed craft marquee and of course all the usual fur and feather and rural skills. So come in and see us!

Monday saw the people of Bampton coming together to plant up the public areas and hang the baskets. It was a really busy afternoon and everyone got involved. Am really looking forward to seeing the plants flourish and put Bampton back on the floral map. Click on the link to Bamptons Web Site for pictures. http://www.bampton.org.uk/bigplant.html
Joolz and Woody of Wicked Willow have been very busy the last few months making sculptures for a year long exhibition at National Trust Knightshayes. This is going to be an amazing opportunity for them and a really special setting to appreciate their work. Whilst you’ll have to go and see what amazing creations they have come up with here is a taster with Joolz’ rather splendid ‘Cheval’. The exhibition begins at the beginning of April but check with Knightshayes for opening times.

Who thinks their mum is a star? Why not show her by giving her a handmade glass star for Mothers Day? It can be made to any colour scheme you require just get in touch and we could come to some arrangement. We also have bunting or these cute little keyrings amongst other craft ideas. Of course you could treat her to some plants but if you are really stuck for ideas we do supply the National Garden Scheme gift vouchers!
