Festival des jardins

It was a little overcast on Sunday, but I’d wanted to visit a garden festival at Rumilly-lés-Vaudes. It’s a pretty little village with a delightful mediaeval styled chateau that was finished in 1532.

I was happily surprised that there was a large and colourful array of plants and flowers on sale to brighten up the day.

I was soon immersed in the process of choosing which plants I wanted to buy. I was looking for some geraniums for my window boxes and my planters around the house. I decided these are a good option this year, as they are predicting that it’s going to be a hot dry summer.

There were also a number of craft stalls selling some gorgeous handmade products. It really is delightful seeing the care and time that people invest in their craft and love of making things.
