Local flower clubs have signed up to take part in the event which will be led by well-known Carlisle flower arranger John Dalton. The festival will be held within the church with home-made refreshments on sale in the grounds of Arthuret House.
The event will run from July 3 until July 5 and is open from 10.30am until 8pm on Friday and Saturday and 10.30pm to 4.30pm on Sunday. A closing Sunday service, will be held at 6pm on the final day, with the service taken by retired Arthuret Church Reverend Dr John Hall.
