Story

Deborah was kindness, warmth and laughter. She loved nature, swapping stories, Africa and chocolate cake! Opening the garden was about people coming together, to soak up the sun, to breathe in the fragrance of roses and sweet peas, to chatter surrounded by the purr of pollinators on lavender and the chirp of birds in the bottlebrush and for people to feast their eyes on flurries of bougainvillea, flames of cannas and frills of oleander. The garden was a chance for people to be immersed in nature, share their stories and to feel peace, joy, laughter and of course chocolate cake. If you didn't get a chance to come or you didn't hear about it, then you can come for your own garden tour, a cuppa and a slice of cake. Contact Anita or Paul or you can enjoy the photos and donate here.
