CHS PLANT FAIR at YNYSHIR
2pm-5pm Sunday 8 June 2025
In the gardens of Ynyshir restaurant at Eglwys Fach, Machynlleth SY20 8TA
CHS Members contribute an amazing selection of plants from their own gardens, so you know that they will suit our local conditions! You are likely to meet the members who grew many of the plants and they can tell you anything you need to know about caring and planting.
Tea includes Welshcakes and Barabrith baked by members.
There is ample parking and all entrants may stroll in the spacious grounds. An open-sided marquee and gazebo provides tea with home-baked bara brith and Welshcakes, plus shade or shelter. Members contribute plants and homebaking – and we hope for another gloriously sunny afternoon.

Tables laden with plants grown by members are laid out in the gardens. Joy Neal’s Arum Lilies walked off their table in the arms of a few lucky early birds in 2019.
