Aylsham In Bloom
Aylsham in Bloom is a voluntary organisation that aims to enhance the attractiveness of the Town for residents and visitors by installing and maintaining flower tubs and flower beds around the town. To achieve this funds are raised from donations and income from the biennial Aylsham Open Gardens event which the volunteers organise.
The next Open Gardens is Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th June 2026. Tickets are available on the open days from the Heritage Centre.
In 2018 the Bloom team were pleased to help Aylsham gain a Gold medal in the Anglian regional Britain in Bloom competition.
Whenever possible Aylsham in Bloom works with other local community groups and organisations on environment and horticultural projects, for example, the Army Cadets helped refurbish the roundabout; the Cubs helped plant new flower beds at the Drill Hall and the Aylsham and District Rotary funded a bench and flower tubs by the Manor Close bus stop. The Town Council, Rotary, the Scouts, Bloom and the Royal Horticultural Society worked together to restore the Paupers Graveyard. Aylsham Town Council provide an allotment at Bure Meadows that Bloom run as a community allotment.
Our regular activities include the annual summer and winter replanting and maintenance of our tubs and borders in the town and the organisation of the biennial town Open Gardens event. Volunteers attend Aylsham High School Family Learning Day each year helping families with a flower planting activity.
Aylsham in Bloom is part of the Aylsham Community Partnership. It is a Registered Charity, number 1166514.
The Aylsham Heritage Centre is also a member of the Partnership.
New volunteers are always welcome.
