Mother’s Day falls on Sunday 19th March 2023 here in the UK. A date to add to your diary!
Here at The Barn Garden Centre Oundle and The Boxwood Café have a few ideas to help you say ‘Thank you’ to the Mums in your life including cards, keyring and candles!
As you would expect, we have lots of gifts ideals for your gardening mum. From pretty gardening gloves to outdoor plants, including this rose ‘Mum in a Million’ with its pink fragrant blooms flowering from summer through to autumn or these stunning Camelias that are full of buds almost ready to burst into bloom.
Inside the Garden Centre, we have a selection of orchids and other indoor plants to present to Mum. If gardening isn’t your Mum’s thing – don’t worry! We have a lovely selection of faux flowers. Arrange them in a vase from our homeward department and you have a present that lasts long after Mother’s Day.
Talking of our homeware department, here is a treasure trove of gift ideas! We have some stunning cushions in stock at the moment. These soaps and matching candles from Raine & Humble have the most beautiful scents including Lemon Myrtle, Sea Salt & Sage and Cotton House, which I have to say is one of the best cotton fragranced candles I have ever smelt. Here I’ve teamed the Raine & Humble French Pear Soap with one of our pear motif cushions.
Does Mum long to make the most of her garden as spring and summer approaches. For a larger gift to her, our outdoor furniture has been put out this week, and there are some stunning sets to choose from.
Why not treat Mum to breakfast or lunch in The Boxwood Café on Mother’s Day? Or make the day extra special with our pre-booked Afternoon Tea. We always offer a limited number of tables to be booked throughout the day so we can leave some tables available for walk-ins. Have other plans on the day itself? Why not buy a Gift Voucher for The Boxwood Café. Available in person from the Café, you can treat Mum another day.
To check availability or to book a table in The Boxwood Café, call us on 01832 270200 during our opening hours or pop in and see us in person.
Wishing you all a wonderful Mother’s Day.
