Volunteering with us
We have a wonderful team of volunteers and are always happy to welcome new recruits to the family. If you have a few hours to spare each week, we’d love to hear from you and will be happy to answer any of your questions.

OPENING TIMES
The garden is now closed.
Due to the national lockdown, York Gate’s Cafe and Gift Shop are closed until further notice.
2021 Seasonal Opening Times
To maintain social distancing, we need to limit the numbers in the garden, so you’ll need to book your slot before you come. Payment will be taken on entry at the garden. The garden will be operating a cashless system, so please bring your card and use contactless payments where possible.
We kindly ask that you make your way around the garden during your allocated slot before visiting the cafe, gift shop and plant nursery in order for us to maintain social distancing.
