Gardening Courses Cambridgeshire

Cambridgeshire is lucky enough to be a worldwide hub for plenty of gardening and horticultural activity. As a university town Cambridge is blessed with botanic gardens, which are well worth a visit.

Cambridge Botanic

It also houses the fantastic winter gardens of Angelsey Abbey. These are a must if you’re interested in winter gardens and planting design. The planting of shrubs is particularly artistic (also see our shrubs course for more)

At MyGardenSchool we have taken much inspiration from the Cambridge area, and many of our tutors are familiar with the area. All tutors are published authors, and we are the first ‘virtual’ gardening school in the world.
