Plant a seed
Join our gardeners for a fun seed-planting activity where you get to take your growing memory of Hill Top home in a little pot!
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Our gardeners spend all year taking care of Hill Top's cottage garden to make sure it looks its best for visitors. For this event, they'll be around at 11:00 - 12:00 and 14:00 - 15:00, helping you pot up some seeds to take home, so you can watch a living memory of your visit grow. This activity also ticks off the 'help a plant grow' activity on your 50 things to do before you're 11&3/4 sheet so don't forget to mark it off.
We ask that everyone does the seed planting activity after going into the house, to avoid any mucky hands inside.
Don't forget to send us pictures of your plant growing - we want to know how it goes!
Please note that in the event of bad weather, this event may be cancelled.
