Plants Pots

We were pleased to offer some excess tomato plant seedlings from garden recently and to see that they went to good homes so quickly! We hope you enjoy planting them.

 

Could you please return your seedling pots back to the SAKG garden so we can reuse them?

 

Thanks!

Indigenous Garden Update

With great excitement, Dean Stewart (Wemba Wemba/Wergaia) has returned our new and improved Indigenous Garden signs!  Take a walk along to learn about some of the Indigenous uses of these plants. Some will be relocated to the biodiversity and bee garden by the water tank, the First Nations food garden next to it and the flowering lily water tank garden by the chooks. Thanks Dean!
