 Visit Howrah Mandy 2026

A warm summer's day and a delightful garden greeted us for the the Southern Food Garden Group's February visit to Mandy's in Howrah. Mandy moved here about three years ago, and we were all astonished to see how she has managed to change the garden from a 'blank canvas' with mainly grass to this thriving plot with flowers everywhere and the vegie components well underway too!

This month's garden visit to John and Colleen's Ravenswood garden was well attended and much enjoyed.
