Stirling and Hills Garden Club:
A group of garden enthusiasts who love to talk and hear about all things ‘gardening’.
Over the years speakers have come and talked about such diverse topics, as: bats, bromeliads, composting, endangered birds, ferns, fungi, mulch, plant collecting, pruning, rare fruit, roses, soils, weed identification and much more.
Our members have a wealth of knowledge about gardening, the best plants to grow, when and how to plant and more. If you live in, or near, the Adelaide Hills come and join in the fun.

Edna Walling's garden designs at Bickleigh Vale with Elizabeth Dobson
In the 1920’s, one of Australia’s first landscape designers, Edna Walling, created a village in the ‘English style’ on approximately 12 ha around her own residence ‘Sonning’.
Prospective owners were required to agree to Edna Walling’s involvement in the design of their cottages and gardens.
Today, more than 90 years later, Edna's vision continues to be realised through a community of like-minded people.
