Cathy at Studio 28

I went to the Garden Expo yesterday with my friend Sandra..........we headed up to Nambour on the back roads through Eudlo and Palmwoods.......to get away from the traffic on the highway.......and spent the most of the day in the Kitchen Garden.......

listen to a couple of talks on growing garlic and potatoes........

we also spent an hour with Costa (with 200 other people) when he spoke about Why Food Matters.....

 There were some great displays, I really enjoyed looking at the natives gardens also.....

The colours in the native flowers are just beautiful...

Check out these Macaws......they were so cheeky.......one lady was talking to them and the Macaw on the left started posing and opening his wing up to show off....I could have watched them for ages......

We went back to the Kitchen Garden, not so many people around then and I managed to get a photo with Costa.........

Sandra and I were so inspired by some of the Garden Clay Art that we enrolled in a pottery class at Eudlo in August......something a little different, I'm looking forward to that.......

I about to get out into the garden to plant the vines and shrubs that I bought yesterday..........I feel all inspired again and have a few new ideas for our garden.......

until next time......Cathy
