Our garden hosts will be happy to welcome you into their gardens, where for the past six months they would of panicked, uprooted and replanted, over trimmed, prayed it grows back, jet washed the patio, repositioned the gnomes, hoovered the astro turf, dead headed, seeded, weeded, poop scooped, raked the gravel, cleaned the pigeon poop, refilled the bird feeder, chucked all the clutter behind the garage, cashed in all the reward points at Monkton Elms garden centre, spent every weekend at Monkton Elm Garden Center buying plants, shrubs, bulbs and talking to their plants with all manner of encouragement, whether threatening with weed killer or cuddling their camilia.
Show your support for their dedication.
Tickets available on the day at the church.

It's our annual plant sale! Home grown and lovingly nurtured plants for your garden and maybe a few for indoors.
A variety of shrubs, flowers, vegetables for you to select from.
There will also be a rehoming section where you can give a plant a home. We have rescued neglected plants from their abandoned environments to give them a chance to grow and flourish from the neglect they have experienced.
Coffee & more...
When, where, why
Our coffee mornings are held the first Saturday of every month at West Monkton Church. Occasionally we may link the coffee morning to another event so may be at the village hall.
These coffee mornings have grown to a regular social meeting, catch up with locals and educational through our wide range of guest speakers who have delighted everyone with their experiences and given us an insight into an array of subjects, bringing in visitors to hear a specific talk that may not have ventured into the church otherwise, giving them an opportunity to meet their neighbours and discover more about our church and village community.
