Open Garden
For those of you who need some help to get the garden looking its best – check out the Garden Design section.
Our garden, Krackatinni, will be open to the public as part of Australia's Open Garden Scheme on the 30th & 31st October 2010. This is Halloween weekend and our garden will be open into the evening, looking suitably spooky especially when the bats fly in at dusk. Krackatinni is a small suburban garden with a focus on organic, sustainable, creative and high density gardening. The front garden is a mixture of vegetables, fruits and ornamentals. The backyard creates a private and peaceful oasis in the middle of suburbia. Throughout the garden you will find many rustic recycled objects, like the antique pump which we combined with industrial C channels to make a unique pond. Other people's trash have become our garden treasures, we love thinking laterally and giving old things new life. You will also meet our chooks, two Isa Browns and two Barnevelders who love to have visitors and so do we! Come and join us for the full Krackatinni experience: enjoy morning or afternoon tea under the white mulberry tree with the lorikeets; have a glass of organic wine with lunch, under a canopy of grape leaves; taste Rosnay organic wines and olives; be amazed at what you can fit into approximately 630sqm as you chat with us about any aspect of gardening. We will be raising money for the charity Adults Surviving Child Abuse. ASCA is a national organisation which works to improve the lives of adult survivors of child abuse throughout Australia. We will be running a raffle with proceeds going to ASCA. We are located near Penrith NSW, in Glenmore Park, enter via Mulgoa Rd; entry fee $6.00.
