Yorkshire What's On

Summer greetings from Helmsley Walled Garden

It’s been an extremely busy season so far at Helmsley Walled Garden and we’re thrilled to have welcomed so many of you to the garden in the recent months. The heatwaves have certainly made garden visits a little more challenging!

Join us for a Summer’s Evening Picnic
Please come along and join us for our very first event as we raise funds for our ‘Growing a Bright Future’ appeal.  

After a complimentary glass of Helmsley Walled Garden apple juice on arrival, we’ll picnic in the tranquil surroundings of the garden on a summer’s eve, accompanied by the captivating harmonies of the Yorkshire Voices choir.
