Growth guidance

The Pakenham Community Garden was a hub of gardening knowledge on Monday 16 September, with a number of local growing groups coming together to share pieces of wisdom and look at the garden’s recent crops, including the United African Farm, the Garfield Community Garden and the Old Cheese Factory Community Garden.

Gazette photographer STEWART CHAMBERS popped along to have a look at the garden’s highlights and the smiles on show among the visitors.
