Geoff and Helen Cousins of Cranbourne have used their stunning garden to help raise $510.00 to help sick children.
The couple opened their amazing Earlston Circuit garden to raise much-needed funds for Casey Hospital’s children’s ward.
Their one and ¾ acres garden attracted about 60 to 80 people on Saturday 19 October – with one couple travelling as far as Euroa and another from St Kilda Road, Melbourne.
Guests were treated to a great selection of plants on sale, and raffle prizes donated by Trios, Amstel Golf Club, Kellys’ Hotel and Cranbourne RSL plus many other prizes donated.
The majority of Geoff and Helen’s garden features native plants and a central pond with “many unique plants and artistic features.”
“The garden was started back in 2010 and is an ongoing project, which we thoroughly enjoy amercing ourselves in. We love to see all the changes in the plants during each season and are constantly amazed at nature’s beauty,” the couple said.
Baked slices and cupcakes as well as tea and coffee were also on offer on the day.“The food was very popular as many guests went back for a second helping,” the couple said.
