more information about this event
The
Harris Garden is on the Whiteknights campus of the University
of Reading, Berkshire, UK and is an important facility
for the School of Biological
Sciences. The Friends of the Harris Garden is an organisation
which was formed in 1987 to support the development of the
garden, in partnership with university staff and authorities.
The role of the Friends is to promote activities in and connected
with the Harris Garden and to further the development of its
amenities and educational services.
The Friends have funded various significant features within
the garden such as the Orchard, the pond liner, the Cherry
Bowl and others.
The Friends of the Harris Garden is run by a committee
elected each year at an Annual General Meeting, normally held
in May.
