Edible Gardens Festival

🎉 Congratulations to Mike, pictured, who travelled down from Perth for the Edible Gardens Festival and was the lucky winning bidder at our Long Table Lunch auction!

Mike took home this Vegepod container gardening kit and says it will fit right in with the several container gardens he already has on the go. With a thriving balcony garden already producing plenty of goodies, this latest addition is sure to be put to good use.

A huge thank you to Vegepod for generously supporting the festival and helping us raise funds while inspiring more people to grow their own food.

Happy growing, Mike! 🌱🥬🍅

Hats off to Shelter Brewing Co for supporting the Edible Gardens Festival and shouting our incredible volunteers and gardeners some great beers for our celebration 🍻

And the same goes for Wayfinder Wines with their lovely red and white vino.

It was the perfect way to bring everyone together and celebrate the people who make this event possible — from the gardeners generously opening their gates to the volunteers working behind the scenes.

We’re so grateful for the support of local businesses like Shelter Brewing and Wayfinder Wines who help make community events like this so special. Cheers legends! 🌱

Huge thanks to South West Tree Services for helping us give back to some of the amazing volunteers who help make the Edible Gardens Festival possible 🌿👏

As part of their support for this year’s festival, the team generously donated a truckload of their beautiful aged mulch, which is now being shared among some of our key festival volunteers as a well-deserved thank you for all the time, energy and passion they pour into the event. 🌱

Mulch really is the secret weapon of a thriving garden — helping lock in moisture, suppress weeds, improve soil health and keep gardens looking fantastic year-round.

A big shout-out to Glen and the team at South West Tree Services for backing the festival and supporting our local gardening community once again. 🌳💚

If you’re looking for quality aged mulch or need help with tree removal, pruning, stump grinding, firebreak compliance, storm damage or bushfire safety work across the South West, be sure to check them out at www.southwesttreeservices.com.au 👍

A big thank you to our wonderful bronze sponsor, the Capes Foundation 🌿

Thanks to their generous donation of gift vouchers, our incredible volunteers were able to experience some of the region’s most iconic nature-based attractions — from exploring spectacular caves, to visiting the Capes Raptor Centre, tackling the Forest Adventures ropes course, or climbing a lighthouse for those unforgettable coastal views.

It’s a special way to give back to the people who give so much of their time to make the Edible Gardens Festival possible 💚
