Stirling and Hills Garden Club: 

A group of garden enthusiasts who love to talk and hear about all things ‘gardening’.


Over the years speakers have come and talked about such diverse topics, as: bats, bromeliads, composting, endangered birds, ferns, fungi, mulch, plant collecting, pruning, rare fruit, roses, soils, weed identification and much more.


Our members have a wealth of knowledge about gardening, the best plants to grow, when and how to plant and more. If you live in, or near, the Adelaide Hills come and join in the fun.
