Coastal Garden Videos
A series of six videos showcasing local gardens created using indigenous and native Australian plants. Each gardener shares the stories behind their garden, their plant choices and advice for new gardeners. The videos are especially valuable for people dealing with the challenges of coastal gardens – wind, sandy soils, wind, salt and more wind! They were produced by Tarwin Landcare Group with the assistance of a South Gippsland Shire Council Community Grant.
