Learn about planting and maintaining street gardens with a focus on native plants. Join local horticulturalist Michael Benham from Victorian Indigenous Nurseries Cooperative (VINC) to learn how to boost support for biodiversity using native indigenous plants whilst greening your neighbourhood.

Please note: There are three workshops on Street gardening in September, they will cover the same topics so please attend the one most convenient to you.

To learn more about Street Gardening before you attend have a look at your Council's website searching for 'nature strip or street gardening'.
