Green-fingered gardeners and home enthusiasts are in for a real treat as the popular Home & Garden Event will be making a welcome return to Marshall’s Yard.
Following the success of last year’s showcase, the event will return to the popular Gainsborough-based shopping centre on Saturday, July 20, between 10am and 4pm.
The event also marks the perfect opportunity to check out the centre’s new B&M store, which officially opens in the former Wilko’s unit on the same day, and has a fantastic home and garden range for customers to browse.
Melissa Clement, Centre Manager at Marshall’s Yard, said: “The event was very popular last year and so we simply had to bring it back this summer.
“Now is the perfect time to spruce up your home or garden, so please come along, have fun and we are sure you will be able to draw some inspiration for your home or garden improvements.
“The event also presents a fantastic opportunity to take a look around our other shops, including the fantastic new B&M store.”
The special event will take place in the centre’s car park and landscaped piazza area and includes a fantastic line up of home and garden-themed stalls from traders including Tower Nurseries, The Old Smithy and East View Designs.
