Use these observations to inspire your gardening activities by working with nature rather than against it. Learn how to refine your succession planting and ripen that elusive Christmas tomato. Create your own action plan for your vegetable patch.
Topics covered include:
Food swap from 6.45pm, session starts at 7.00pm.

Find out about our street tree planting program, how we manage our trees and how to request a new street tree. ...
Managing our trees is essential for maintaining the health and wellbeing of our community and surrounding environment.
We have over 90,000 street trees in Manningham and countless more throughout our reserves and natural areas. We strive to protect and enhance our tree population to benefit us now and our future generations.
Our tree management activities include:
Each year we plant up to 3000 trees throughout our streets and reserves. Our tree planting program is a critical part of future proofing Manningham against the negative effects of climate change.
Street tree planting is done between May and September each year. Timings may vary to make the most of planting conditions.
Manningham has been divided into 18 precincts. Species have been selected based on urban forest principles, biodiversity values, risk, and landscape amenity. The species palette, a selection of native and exotic trees, will establish the long-term character for a street or main road.
You can make a request for an additional tree on your nature strip or to replace a dead or damaged tree.
Requests for new trees can be made via the online form or by calling our Customer Service team on 9840 9333.
The site will be inspected by our arborist to determine if the location is suitable for planting.
If your request is approved, tree planting usually takes place during the following year’s planting season.
The type of tree will be decided by our arborist based on our Street Tree Planting Guide.
