Keen gardeners have a grand day out in store when Mapperton hosts its Autumn Charity Plant Fair 

Held within the grounds of Mapperton House, near Beaminster, on Sunday, September 15, the fair always attracts a large number of stalls run by expert plantsmen and women from across the region and is one of the largest such events in Dorset.

The £5 entry fee includes free entry to Mapperton’s award-winning gardens, and the event will support charity partner West Dorset Wilding.

The fair runs from 10am until 4pm and under-5s enter free.

The Coach House café will be serving hot drinks and snacks. Book tickets and find out more at mapperton.com
