As summer heats up, it’s time to create a lush, abundant garden while keeping your water use (and bills) low by adapting to the changing climate!

Join us for a Water Smart workshop, covering topics including garden design for shelter from sun and hot winds, irrigation systems, working with slopes, greywater, rainwater tanks, drought-hardy edible plants, and the wonders of wicking beds.

Sunday 10 November
2pm–4pm
Murrumbeena Community Garden,
117 Murrumbeena Rd, Murrumbeena VIC 3163
