An event for the love of gardening
This much anticipated gardening event was a huge success. A special one-day ticketed event set in the historic Stangate House gardens in Aldgate coincided with glorious weather and spectacular autumn colour of the Adelaide Hills.
Stirling and Hills Garden Club's stall was fantastic. A testament to much hard work of a few valiant organisers backed up by many plants grown by club members. The stall did very well and raised considerable funds for the club.
This event is planned to be a continuing biennial autumn event. Watch out for 2026.
