Event Description

In addition to our normal monthly weekend garden visit, this month we are having an extra get together on a weekday.  Come along next Thursday 5 July for some afternoon tea and a look at Denise and Ray's lush but compact garden.

This is what Denise and Ray have said about their place.

We will be meeting in our pergola and we have already informed our fourteen-year-old dog, Huggy,(border collie) that he will have to move aside and make room for visitors because previously he always thought the pergola was a flyover for his dog house. Everyone is welcome to come for a chit-chat and a cuppa. Our vegetable garden has easy access because its on a one metre high retaining wall. We just love the sorrell. It was overhauled earlier this year, anything that wasn’t edible was removed except the iris’. We recently put in two trellis’ and used the no dig garden system for the main one. We have a tumbler style barrel composter which we have used for years. We used to grow our own wheatgrass for juicing and the composting made the most delightful compost. We have a few fruit trees in pots, but they are only babies at the moment. We don’t know how one arranges for a rain - free day. Should we try begging, bribing or praying? Although, if raining there is plenty of room undercover. Denise and Raymond

Denise and Ray's garden is in Tanah Merah.

All the normal things apply:

Please bring along things to share: excess produce, seeds, seedlings, plant material, and something to eat for afternoon tea.

There will also be a donation box if you would like to contribute a few $ towards the cost of operating and promoting Logan Food Gardeners.  For example the promotional seed packets, stalls, posters for displays, fliers etc.

This event is limited to the first 30 people, so please indicate by comment (below the event) how many people you will be bringing.   

Please RSVP to this event to indicate your attendance.  The address will be sent to attendees who RSVP only.  Any problems contact Lyn Buffett on 0422 905 876.

Our normal weekend garden visit is scheduled for Saturday 21 July.  More details will be released on that soon.

Thanks Denise and Raymond for having us at your wonderfully green productive garden.  I love the use of recycled materials and the repeated reincarnation of the swing shelter. The guided tour was perfect too :)

Sorry working this time - but like the idea of mid week visits as can't attend the regular events as it clashes with another trading day.
