Nelson Growables

The Nelson Growables annual garden fair is organised by the Nelson Growables Charitable Trust.   We are a group of volunteers who share the aim to promote the knowledge and enjoyment of all things growable.    

Growables continues to operate as a not-for-profit charity, the objective of which is to be self-sustaining, and yet affordable for stallholders and the public. Any proceeds will be retained for future Growables events, as well as promoting the Growables message.

Visit our 2011 page to see the sights of the 2011 Growables, and read about all the happenings of the Fair.  Nelson Growables continues to ‘grow’ (pardon the pun), and attract all of the expert offerings our wonderful region has to offer.  Watch this space for more innovations coming in 2012.
