We enjoyed a beautiful morning tea in a peaceful garden setting, surrounded by stunning views over the lake and large, shady trees. It was so cool and relaxing—we could have stayed there all morning!
Next, we visited Tony Smith’s front garden, which featured beautiful trees and plants.
Our third stop was Kathie and Brian Wragg’s garden. This lovely, spacious garden had fantastic views of the lake, plenty of trees, and well-maintained garden beds.
A big thank you to all the Mitchell Street garden owners for sharing their beautiful spaces with us!
We wrapped up the day with an enjoyable lunch at the Royal Hotel, where the conversation continued. It was wonderful to meet our new members and welcome back familiar faces—a great way to start the year with happy company!
