Vision

In 1992 the supporters group was formed after an ad was placed in the local paper “The Banner” by Mr Jim Priestly. Of that initial group of fifty, several are still helping in the Garden each Wednesday & Saturday morning.

Our supporters come from all walks of life and from all over Melbourne. The original group were trained in all aspects of rose culture by some of the most foremost rosarians in the country and are passing on their knowledge to each newcomer. The aim: to produce healthy bushes and maximum blooms for all to enjoy.

Without these dedicated workers we would not have a garden today as it has been under threat several times.

Goal

Apart from the sunshine, fresh air, learning & satisfaction there are other advantages of volunteering. The camaraderie of like-minded people is one of the best feelings as we toil in our beautiful garden.
