The St Leonards Garden Club will host an open gardens day tomorrow (Saturday, October 29) as a fundraiser for the St Leonards Progress Association.<\/p>\n
The Open Gardens Day is being held over the Melbourne Cup weekend, when St Leonards is expected to be packed with visitors.<\/p>\n
There will be 16 diverse gardens opened, including two in Indented Head for people to explore.<\/p>\n
Gardeners are invited to share their stories and discover new things, see what plants grow in the local area and find ideas for a new project.<\/p>\n
The St Leonards Garden Club open gardens all have a relaxing atmosphere that will provide an enjoyable outing and promote community connections through gardening in our town.<\/p>\n
Tomorrow’s community event has been made possible with support and sponsorship from businesses in the township and will rely entirely on volunteers.<\/p>\n
The St Leonards Progress Association is a local group that owns and operates the St Leonards Memorial Hall on behalf of the community.<\/p>\n
Tickets are $10 for adults (and free for children) and give an adult access to all gardens.<\/p>\n
