Surviving Climate Change: Gardens and trees are essential. Trees are disappearing from urban areas all over Australia. Their loss has huge impacts on environmental and social aspects of everyday life. Trees are not just large ornaments around our homes, they are essential infrastructure. Without them our cities will not be environmentally or economically sustainable.

Matthew Lucas is his amateur friend who brings Stephen back to earth so we can all use his great knowledge. Together they are “The Horticulturalists”!

 

 Combine this great program with a supporting foundation of an incredible, diverse and full-on Garden Fair.
