Gee I’m enjoying this week and it still has a couple of days to go! I spent last weekend over in Kalamunda in the hills outside Perth, where I was fortunate to be involved in a fantastic day of talks as part of a satellite event for the upcoming Kalamunda Garden Festival.

Millie preps her vegie beds for winter, Clarence welcomes a new eucalypt, Sophie marvels mosaic art, Jerry tours a restored waterway, we meet a scientist nurturing native bees, Jude constructs a hot compost bed and Tammy makes a herb tower.

Tammy transforms an unused metal trolley into an accessible high-rise herb tower.

Jude constructs a hot compost bay layered with the perfect ingredients to feed a productive patch.

Think winter means no flowers? Think again! These winter-flowering natives will add colour to any garden!

Save space and make a chicken run that doubles as garden seating!

Nothing beats fresh cup of tea after a day of gardening! Here’s how to grow your own!

No matter where you live, there’s plenty to plant in the vegie patch this weekend!

Take advantage of the cooler weather and head out in the garden this weekend!
