A Weekend of Gardens, Community and Giving Back
There’s something rather special blooming in Cambridge this November.
The Rotary Cambridge Garden Festival returns on 14 and 15 November, bringing together 17 remarkable private gardens for a weekend of inspiration, discovery and a little indulgence along the way.
Organised by Rotary Cambridge, the festival is about much more than beautiful gardens. It’s an opportunity to gather your friends, spend a day – or an entire weekend – exploring Cambridge, and know that simply by taking part, you’re helping support the local community.
This year’s gardens offer an incredible variety of landscapes, styles and stories, with something different waiting beyond every garden gate. Visitors can explore at their own pace or leave the driving behind and travel by shuttle, making it wonderfully easy to sit back and enjoy the day.
And for those wanting to add a little extra sparkle to their Saturday, Bubbles at The Clements Hotel offers the chance to unwind over prosecco and canapés while hearing an extraordinary garden story.
Most importantly, funds raised through this year’s festival will help support four local organisations: Achievement House, Cambridge Community House, Cambridge Lifeskills and InterlockNZ Trust.
It’s a weekend that brings together beautiful gardens, good friends and a great cause – a wonderful example of community supporting community.

Unfortunately, numerous Rotary club and district Facebook pages and Instagram accounts have been closed by Meta without prior notice. This issue has escalated recently, and Rotary International is working closely with Meta (the company behind Facebook and Instagram) to find a solution.
While a root cause or guaranteed method for restoration has not yet been identified, Meta has now reinstated several Rotary-related pages at Rotary International’s request. With your help, Rotary International can identify additional pages that need reinstatement.
Rotary clubs and districts can complete a form via the following link (on.rotary.org/fbissue) so their Facebook and Instagram pages can be added to Meta’s “allow list” as part of Rotary International’s efforts to resolve the issue.
Please indicate in the form if a page has already been removed by Meta. Page administrators will then receive an email with specific instructions and an official letter from Rotary International to support their restoration efforts.
