Sprouting Joy This Festive Season: Nursery News & Holiday Updates

Sprouting Joy This Festive Season: Nursery News & Holiday Updates

As the weather warms up and Christmas approaches, the nursery has been reasonably quiet this past month. However, behind the scenes, we're in full propagation mode, preparing to meet the demand for what we expect to be a very busy autumn season.

Over the Christmas period, Julie will be taking some well-earned leave, but Paul will still be on deck to keep things running smoothly. The nursery will only be closed on Christmas Day and New Year’s Day, so you can still pop in during the festive season.

Looking for a unique last-minute Christmas gift or tree? We’ve been selling small native Christmas trees, perfect for adding a touch of nature to your celebrations. They’re available for just $25.00 each, but stock is limited, so don’t wait too long. Visit us this Friday or Monday to grab yours before they’re gone!

We’d also like to take this opportunity to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of our incredible volunteers. Your dedication and hard work throughout the year make everything we do possible, and we are so grateful for your support.

From all of us at the nursery, we wish you a safe and happy holiday season. See you soon!

Our members often say that when you become part of Landcare, you’re not just joining a group, you’re becoming part of a family. The concept is so compatible with Australian culture it’s hard not to get involved! By becoming a TRLA member, you’ll be supporting our work, learning new skills, becoming part of the solution, and helping to make a difference for the future.
