Old Government Cottage

Old Government Cottage

One of our community projects was the restoration of the garden at Old Government Cottage in Stanley Street, Bathurst.   The project started in early 2013 with Bathurst Gardeners’ Club constructing and researching an historical 1850’s style kitchen garden and plants of that era.  Bathurst District Historical Society provided the majority of the funds for the project.

The garden has several sections – picking garden, fruit trees, herb garden, vegetable garden and berries.

The garden was opened on the 29th of March 2015 and was a bi-centenary project.

The garden received an award at the Bathurst Bicentenary National Trust Heritage Awards for Outstanding Community Contribution to Local Heritage.

Official opening of the garden at Old Government Cottage on Sunday, 29th of March 2015.

December Meeting – Sunday 8th December 2024 at 12.00pm at The Perthville Community Hall.  

Please note that this is also the club’s AGM. 

We need more volunteers from our large membership to ensure the further development of the club.

It is also the final meeting of another successful year and we will be celebrating Christmas.

Would all attending members bring either a salad or a dessert. Those with surnames beginning with A – M

should bring a salad to share and those with surnames beginning N – Z should bring a dessert to share.

The club will be providing different buffet meats and a delicious punch.

Come along and enjoy the day.
