Visit Fern Tree Maria and Michel 2025

This beautiful garden at Fern Tree on the lower slopes of Kunanyi provided a stunning setting for the final Southern Food Garden Group visit of the season. With extensive protected areas for food crops nestled among towering eucalypts and other native plants, we had a chance for a close up look at how two keen gardeners have managed the challenges of a steep site, cold climate, and extensive wildlife pressure to create a thriving and productive space for growing food.

Visit South Hobart Rosalie 2021

 Visit South Hobart Rosalie December 2021

The rain came and went on a cool Saturday in early December when we met at Rosalie and Grant's place in South Hobart. And what an inspiring visit it was. We had visited Rosalie before, in a previous garden of hers in Sandfly. Then, as now, we were all amazed at the energy, creativity and sheer grit and determination Rosalie brings to her gardens.
