About the garden - Small garden
Celebrating Manor Farm’s 250-year anniversary, this show garden reflects the company’s proud heritage of tradition, innovation and care for the environment. The train track-inspired path, crafted from recycled railway sleepers and gravel, symbolises the journey from Manor Farm’s origins in rural Ireland to the heart of the capital. Dublin’s Manor Street is referenced in a clever and creative sculpture made from metal rods.
An authentic wildflower meadow, native trees and shrubs, and a regenerative oat and wheat field is a nod to Manor Farm’s farming roots and sustainable future. To honour Manor Farm’s home in Cavan, the garden features a water element, reflecting the county’s famous 365 lakes.
This biodiverse, sensory-rich garden features native species like hazel, hawthorn, elder and birch, interwoven with herbs and fragrant plants. The planting includes a thoughtful mix of blues and yellows, a subtle and beautiful tribute to Manor Farm’s Swedish ownership.
