Bring your gumboots, garden gloves and a spade, we do have some spades to share and there will be some holes dug. Bring suitable wet weather gear if required. Enjoy a fun morning out, there will be a sausage sizzle afterwards for all planters.

There will be face painting and good coffee being sold by Coffee stop.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN PULLING INTO THE SITE AND LEAVING BY VEHICLE, IT IS A VERY BUSY ROAD. BE SAFE !!!
