Enjoy wandering the garden around the homestead of this family-owned sheep property settled in 1853. Have Devonshire tea on the verandah overlooking the farm, support the plant and trading tables, and more.
Proceeds benefit Strathalbyn Uniting Church St Andrew's restoration: reaching 176 years old sees it in need of expensive TLC.
The garden is random and rustic, as space allowed for experiment.
It's always been incidental to the Merino and Poll Merino studs; having to bear with the rain shadow, wind, wandering animals, sporadic attention and need to be a bargain.
A casual blend of Australian and exotic shrubs, perennials, annuals, bulbs and trees has been established in the last 15 years, complementing older lawns and trees planted by previous generations.
Gardening is intermittent as I'm a reader, on volunteer rosters and cancer left energy impacted.
Most grows reasonably without good water; birds love it and it feeds the soul.🙂
