This private 5 acre garden is only 20 minutes from Geelong and is well worth a visit from anyone who has an interest in gardening. Our object is to encourage interest with homeowners to use more native plants and second hand materials for use in their landscaping needs. This beautiful extensive garden encompasses a wide range of habitats and plants spread around the spacious, but easily-travelled grounds.
The Garden is normally open by appointment only outside of special events. What that means is just give us a call to make sure we will be home. Group bookings, garden clubs and coaches are welcome with special packages available that include morning/afternoon tea.
