Thank you

Thank you to all the people who attended our morning tea last Sunday.  What a fantastic turnout.

The weather gods held back the rain and the planting was completed in record time (note for next year order an extra 100 plants!).  The mini market selling cakes and jams was a success and well done to our winner of the raffle.

I am quite sure that everyone had a great time.  Once again thanks for attending.  A few photos of the fun that was had!

Community Garden

You may have noticed the Community Garden that is on Allens Road (adjacent to the Uambi Site).

Its coming along nicely and there is even a lovely place for you to sit and reflect on the beauty that is Heathmont!.

Thanks to Will Harper and his girls for all the hard work.  It looks amazing.

If you would like to contribute any plants (perhaps a lemon tree!) please speak to Will Harper or contact us on our email.
