Simon's Organic Nursery
Saturday 27th April 2019, 2pm - 4pm
317 Frome Road, Currency Creek
Over the last 25 years, Simon Ardill has developed a nursery nestled in a bush setting alongside Currency Creek following organic principles. You may have met Simon at many of the Fleurieu Markets where he is known for his large variety of salvias and herbs.
Simon has specialised in rare olive trees from which he produces a unique blended oil. He has a vast orchard of fruit and nut trees including feijoas, peaches, apricots, apples, chestnuts, pistachios and almonds. There is also a productive vegetable garden and different varieties of bamboo.
He will tour us through the property and then talk about and demonstrate propagation, discuss the choice of fruit trees for our gardens and then demonstrate pruning of fruit trees.
This event is for the true garden lover. In Simon’s unique bush setting there are no toilet facilities, running water or electricity. Please wear good walking shoes and come prepared for all weather conditions.
This is the same weekend as the Goolwa Wooden Boat Festival so you may wish to visit the area in the morning and catch an early lunch (but find a loo before your arrival).
Water, soft drinks and snacks will be provided.
Cost for this event is $35.
Limited to 30 Attendees
Simon is happy to sell a wide variety of plants from his Nursery
