Alan's Garden Blog

We have just opened our Unit at 20 Jennings to guests. Jaye has done such a good job I want to live in it! So if you need an excuse to come to Toowoomba you can stay in luxury and have a look at my gardens. Do both and you would have to get a discount. We have all the information you need to explore what Toowoomba has to offer from our central location close to the CBD. Check it out at toowoombabnb.com.au 

You need to have your gardens ready for spring. This time every year I start to get very busy so get in before the rush. Also, I will have to put prices up 5% when I get a chance to change the website to cover increases over the last two years. At the moment I am still getting orders out in about a week. If you have any questions give me a call I am always good for a chat (only have the dog here to talk to). Sunday 29 July: told you I would get busy, twenty orders have...

Hi Alan Eighteen months ago I bought four of the extra large garden beds. Very happy with them. I would like to order two Space Saver garden beds. I am in Horsham, Victoria.  Thanks Karen

Buy local organic garlic to plant. Lots of quality home compost and rock minerals dug in then 'mulch' with cheap bulk compost. Then sit back and watch it grow.  

Hi Alan, My wife and I are both GPs who have moved to Toowoomba, bought a house and have always had an interest in teaching our children about gardening, growing our own herbs and veges, composting and worm farming. We are looking at two of your jumbo gardens to purchase, and buying one of these from yourself is cheaper than a special order from bunnings for a 3m long bed, without your clever design. What time would we expect from purchase to arrival? Many thanks, and the kids loved the youtube videos about assembly and maintenance. Many thanks, John
