Active Ageing through Gardening workshop - Healthy Ageing Festival

Changing how we garden means we can continue to enjoy all the health and environmental benefits of a garden as we age.

Why is that when we finally have time to work on our gardens, our bodies tell us to slow down and the physical aspects of gardening become more difficult?  Changing a gardens’ design and some of our gardening practices means we can continue to enjoy all the physical, emotional and spiritual benefits from a garden no matter what our age.

Presented by Sustainable Gardening Australia, attendees will learn tips for garden design, container gardening, choosing lower-maintenance plants and gardening safely as we age. They will also be able to see and handle ergonomic tools that can make gardening easier.
