Fern Festival


  • Riverhill Himalayan Gardens Riverhill Sevenoaks, Kent, TN15 0RR United Kingdom (map)

A new event for us, and a long overdue celebration of our incredible fern collection. Plus a chance to learn more about these fascinating and ancient plants.

  • ROCK GARDEN TOURS: 21st, 22nd, 23rd June. At 11:00 and 2:00. Meet at the Rock Garden.

  • MAKE YOUR OWN FOSSIL: A fun little activity for our tiny fern fans 10-4.

  • FERNS UNDER THE MICROSCOPE: Come and see some ferns up close with Misako’s electronic microscope.

  • FERN I-D: Challenge our fern fanatic experts, bring along a troublesome specimen and see if they can identify it for you.

  • FERN SALES - Saturday and Sunday

Plus a lovely display of exhibits, courtesy of the Pteridological society.

All activities are drop-in and included in normal garden entry.

The Festival will be based at the Summer House, above the Old Tennis Lawn (except for the tours, which start and end in the Rock Garden)
