On Saturday the 10th of October over 35 members enjoy an afternoon visiting three beautiful gardens.   Each group set off from McDonald’s car park at different times to conform with Covid-19 guidelines.  The weather was perfect and it was great to see smiles on faces.

Thank you to – Jo, Bill, Patrick, Rosemary, Wendy and Ian for allowing us to visit their beautiful and interesting gardens.

Historic Machattie Park was the meeting venue for a successful meeting of members and guests.  The good attendance in lovely surroundings, were receptive to Rusel from Bathurst Regional Council and Dhyan from “Natural Splendour” on water-wise issues.  Russel presented a factual account of the situation and history of the current restrictions and the planning for the expected future.  Dhyan explained the use and chemistry of grey water, benefits and value of varieties of mulching and available chemicals and application techniques.

Thanks to Don Stafford for his summary of the meeting and lovely photos.
