Fine Gardening
Garden

For gardens that work for you
and the pollinators.

Site-specific, seasonally structured and honest about what works in Melbourne’s West.

Growing Gardeners
Schools

Growing Gardeners. Hands in
the soil, not in the air.

Curriculum-aligned growing programs for primary schools and childcare centres, with free seedlings and gardening guidance. Currently running at Footscray West, Footscray City, Brunswick East Primary and Gowrie @ The Harbour.

01

Expression of interest

Tell me about your school, your garden and how you’d like this to integrate into existing learning, or create new learning opportunities.

02

Site visit and confirming your needs

I will visit your school and conduct a site visit to inspect your growing locations, review soil health and discuss plant selection. I will also confirm how we can integrate into your existing curriculum, or provide support to establish a new offering.

03

Community support

The monthly Pollinator Packs are released in support of your school. The community’s purchase does good twice: more habitat for pollinators, and funding your school’s participation in our program.

04

Seedling growing

I grow seedlings for your school right here in Kingsville. Minimum quantity is a 72-cell tray, with your choice of natives, companion plants or ornamentals, all pollinator friendly.

05

Growing sessions

Hands-on sessions throughout the term to support students plant, maintain and harvest (if relevant) from their thriving garden.

06

Outcomes report

What was planted, student learning observations, and opportunities for further work. Documented for the school council and future planning.

For schools and childcare centres
