​We can't wait to welcome you back to the River Garden!
Come along and join our River Garden Community, meet like-minded people, learn from expert speakers, assist to maintain the growing spaces and more. There are tasks for all abilities, sharing of information and produce plus learning for all.
The produce is growing, however so are the weeds and grasses, we need your help!!

Our next River Garden Blitz on Saturday 14th of August will again feature local Horticulture teacher Adrian James, who will this time be helping us to control pests, diseases and disorders with the I.D. / Treat / Manage approach.
​Participants are asked to bring along a photo or a bagged sample of a pest, disease or disorder on your vegetables or fruit trees, or even natives so we can discuss problems and come up with solutions for you. If you have ever wondered what is eating your cabbages, why your citrus leaves are yellow or what that funny spot is on your leaves then this is the day for you!
