Local gardening enthusiasts are in for a treat this weekend as the Pakenham Community Garden will be transformed into your one-stop-shop for seedlings and plants.
The community garden, located next to Pakenham’s Living & Learning Centre on Henry Street, will be selling a wide range of seedlings and plants on Sunday 5 December – just in time for those Christmas holiday planting projects!
With prices ranging from just 10 cents up to $6, there’ll be plenty of affordable seedlings to go around and members of the community garden will be there on the day, sharing their wealth of wisdom with aspiring local gardeners.
Pakenham Community Garden coordinator Max Godber encouraged everyone to come by on Sunday afternoon to say hello and explore the selection of plants on offer.
“The Pakenham Community Garden will be hosting another seedling and plant sale this Sunday from 2 – 4pm at 6b Henry Street, Pakenham,“ Mr Godber said.
“Our range includes potted herbs, vegetable seedlings, indoor and ornamental plants – [but there are] limited quantities available!
“Come down to support your local community garden and learn more about how to get a bumper harvest this summer,“ he said.
