Coming Soon: Open House, Open Garden.

10 Trees garden is a 2.5 acre garden in Bamford in the Peak District, which was created by a local man Richard Bardell in 2008 for the simple joy of gardens. Ten old sycamores fringe the garden, which is a blend of naturalised grasses, trees and wildflowers peppered with grass pathways and beautiful cultivated flower beds. From the lawn and through the walnut trees, there are striking views of Bamford Edge to the East and Win Hill to the West. 

Today, 10 Trees is an extension of Open House Hathersage, sharing the ethos of offering space for the local community to gather, to nourish themselves and each other naturally, and to feel right at home - but this time in the garden. 

For those that want to get their hands dirty, there is our kitchen garden for growing organic vegetables, an established orchard, compost stations and a potting shed where workshops meet practice, and practice meets play. This is a place not just for producing amazing food, but for understanding our kinship with the planet and finding the connections between our inside and outside worlds. 

At the communal dining table, on the lawn and around the fire pit there is room for both conversation and private reflection, for art and for therapeutic exchanges, and most importantly for regenerating our sense of whole-being. 

Some days, exchanges and events will be curated by us, for you. Other days it will be all about the tomatoes or the compost or the pruning or the clipping, done together. And then some days, you might just want the space to ‘be’, alongside each other and this precious world.
