What about my state?!
We often get queries from home gardeners and garden centres asking when we will be coming to their state. The short answer is that to a large extent it is out of our hands. We would love nothing more than to be able to spread the message to every corner of Australia… and one day we definitely will be. However the fact remains that SGA is a not-for-profit organisation and we are very reliant on donations, as well as funding from government and other bodies, to finance our programs.
If SGA is not currently active in your neck of the woods please feel free to write to your local member and let them know how important you think our work is! The best way to keep in the loop is through our free monthly newsletter, Cuttings. If you are not already a subscriber, click here to register now!
