How Green is Your Garden?
SGA has developed a DIY garden audit or you can contact a horticultural professional to do it for you.
Sustainable Garden Self Audit
This is a 2 page sustainable garden audit that allows you to assess how sustainable your gardening practices are and simple steps to improve your performance.
For a Professional Garden Audit
Sustainable Gardening Australia has provided training for Sustainable Garden Centre staff to assess the sustainability of gardens in relation to water conservation, invasive plants and safe alternatives, pest and disease management, condition of the soil, lawn alternatives and home composting.
A trained Sustainable Garden Assessor can provide you with an on-site consultation and complete report on the current state of your garden and what improvements you can make to improve the sustainability of your garden.
Attractive fence signage is also available to gardens that provide a great example to neighbours of how great a sustainable garden can be!
Please contact the nursery personally for an assessment of your garden and expert advice on all aspects of Sustainability.
The following nurseries are qualified to conduct a Sustainable Garden Assessment of your garden. To organise a consult, phone your nearest garden centre and speak to their Sustainable Garden Assessor.
