STORY

Bridget and her partner, Luke, have spent the last 11 years slowly developing a sustainable permaculture garden at their home and on the verge for neighbours to share.

Relatively low maintenance, the garden combines a variety of perennial fruit and vegetables including a banana circle, a feijoa hedge, an edible verge, aquaponics system, chook pen, various citrus, fruit trees, herbs and other edibles, mixed with ornamentals.

In 2014, the garden was opened to the public for the last year of the long running ABC Open Gardens Australia event. In 2018, the garden was awarded first prize in the Edible Garden category of the Lane Cove Council Garden Competition.

In March 2021 the garden was shown Nationally on ABC’s Gardening Australia.

PLEASE NOTE that this year only the verge and front garden will be open to the public. The backyard will be able to be viewed via a virtual garden tour in the days prior to the weekend and the video made available online on our youtube channel.
