Chelsea Fringe

The Fringe is the alternative gardening event of the early summer!

Specifically, it’s a week of horticultural ‘happenings’, from pop-up gardens and installations in unlikely parts of the city, to floral boats plying the Thames; walks, talks and workshops on every sort of vaguely gardening-y topic; galleries and museums festooned with plant-themed artworks and initiatives. Shops and corporate HQs are getting in on the act too.

But, most importantly, the Fringe is a chance for community gardening projects, allotments and public parks to show off and celebrate what they do all year round.
