Gardening on the verge is a wonderful opportunity to contribute to your streetscape, encourage wildlife and create a beautiful vista for your home. This workshop teaches residents the basics in safety, plant choices and how to find out more about their local shire’s rules and regulations such as setback and irrigation.

We will discuss:

• Benefits of verge gardening

• Your rights and responsibilities of gardening on the verge

• Street tree regulations

• Pros and cons of a lawned verge

• Waterwise plant selection options for low maintenance verges

• Where to source inspiration and plant stock

Make the most of the space in front of your property and use it to enhance the feel and value of your home. Verge gardening is fun and rewarding!
