Coming events
Sunday 23 June, 2pm-4pm: Free workshop - interesting ingredients.
Learn about some of the interesting vegies, grains and greens we've grown in Bernie's Home Garden this year, and how to make some nutritious and warming salads to beat the winter chill.
What the gardeners are up to
- A big seasonal task has been raking leaves up and taking them off shrubbery.
- We're also form-pruning and dead-wooding some deciduous shrubs, and transplanting rhododendrons that aren’t working where they currently are.
- We've also been giving Bernie's Home garden a little make-over, and prepping the paths and garden beds around the new Hollard Centre, due to open in September.
