Upcoming events

  • Orchard Maintenance Workshop

    • Sun, September 01, 2019
    • 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM
    • Pettys Orchard

    We plan to plant 11 speciment apricot trees in the area between the marquee and the gate. Barrier fencing and netting over these. More work in the nursery. Possibly grafting apple trees for next year. Possibly grass cutting by mower and whipper-snipper. More watering, weeding, other maintenance tasks. Discussion and planning over coffee.

     Work with our experienced volunteers and learn some new skills.



    This is a free event. You do not need to book and no experience is necessary. Contact heritagefruitssociety@gmail.com for further information.

    Coffee, tea and refreshments are provided.

    Wear sturdy boots and clothing, as well as a hat and sunscreen. If you wish, you can bring a pair of gardening gloves and your own secateurs, preferably with your name clearly written on them.


    Address: cnr Homestead and Monckton Rds, Templestowe, 3106 Victoria, Australia.
