Autumn Open Day will be held on Sunday 28th April from 10am to 3pm

We hold 2 Open Days each year in conjunction with the Australian Plant Society – In Spring and Autumn

There will be morning and afternoon tea on sale and an 'all day' sausage sizzle. A good number of Native Plant Growers will be selling a wide range of plants and will also be happy to give advice on planting and maintaining a native garden.

There will be a free soil testing service.

The Butterfly Conservancy and Citaslow were new attendees in September and hopefully will become regulars
NOSSA (The SA Orchid Society) also will come with info and orchids for sale

Entry is a gold coin donation towards the continued planting of the reserve and plant labeling.

A new picnic setting, donated by the Victor Harbor Council has been installed

A new picnic setting has been installed in a lovely shady , quiet area on the Northern boundary and new plantings are growing well around it

New toilet was been installed in February and the area landscaped around it.

In the last 2 years a new large shed has been built, purchased from funds raised by the Friends, and erected with ‘in kind’ help from the Victor Harbor Council.

Bunnings donated a rainwater tank and Council prepped the site, provided pavers and rock and paid for the erection. Volunteers did the rest, including retaining walls, paving and landscaping.

More stone edging has been added around the reserve

Labelling has been redone, irrigation upgraded

There are 2 newly planted garden beds and there is also new feature walling in the scented garden and around the gazebo. The stone was donated by the Rumbelow family, sourced from their old cottage which once stood by the now Yilki store.We held a ceremony with descendants of the Rumbelow family to commemorate the placing of a plaque on the donated stone in 2017.
