2006 Garden Competition

to assist in any way.

list of Committee members and contact details.
The weather conditions and water restrictions will present even more of a
challenge this year, but it's now more important than ever to show that it's
still possible to have an attractive garden under adverse conditions by adopting
waterwise strategies.
The waterwise category is sponsored by the Pine Rivers Shire Council and will
be expanded this year to cover waterwise planting, as well as innovations in
water collection and retention. We've also identified some useful
waterwise links:
Pine
Water
Waterwise Gardens

International
The key dates are:
Closing date for entries - Tuesday, 5th September
Judging Day - Sunday, 10th September
Presentation Day - Sunday, 8th October
Presentations this year will be held at the Arana Leagues Club.
All entrants will receive vouchers for a free bag of potting mix from
our major sponsor, Steve Jones, and a
cubic metre of mulch from the Pine Rivers Shire Council. Please note that
you will need to pick up the mulch yourself from the Council tip on Bunya
Rd. The mulch is not bagged and you will need a box trailer or utility to
collect it.
The Hills District and Bunya Garden Competition wish to recognise the
generosity and support of our sponsors. Residents can show their
appreciation by supporting these sponsors.
The sponsors list was last updated 10th September,
2006.
