The HGF awards prizes of up to £2,500 for good practice in garden
restoration. Since its launch in 1998 there have been varied themes
including privately-owned gardens in France and Scotland, publicly-owned
gardens in England and Wales and a photography prize for images that
best conveyed the essence of a garden under threat. We hope to award the
HGF prize again this year. Details will be announced in due course.
