Paper High at RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival 2025

This year marked our very first time showcasing Paper High at the RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival and what an experience it was! It was a big undertaking, from planning the stand to transporting our products, but every moment was worth it. We met so many wonderful people, shared the stories behind our products, and felt truly inspired by the atmosphere and display gardens. A huge thank you to everyone who helped and visited us, we thoroughly enjoyed every second.

Building our stand

A corner of a workshop or storage area with wooden shelves holding decorative items, books, boxes, and craft supplies against a wood-paneled wall brings to mind the charming displays at the Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival.

Planning began months in advance, with Mark carefully crafting the structure of our stand from the ground up, building in bespoke shelves and display areas to bring our vision to life.

Once the framework was in place, it was painted and prepped, ready for Claire to work her visual magic. She trialled layouts and styling to create a display that truly showcased our beautiful Fair Trade garden products at their best.

Our Highlights

We were genuinely inspired by the creativity and beauty on display throughout the festival from the stunning gardens to the incredible variety of stalls. And with the sun shining down all week, it couldn’t have been more perfect. Here are a few moments Claire captured while soaking up the atmosphere.
