Green thumbs are being invited to cultivate their gardens – and their knowledge – at the Garden Lovers’ Fair.
Mount Macedon and District Horticultural Society’s annual festival will take place at Bolobek in Mount Macedon on the weekend of October 7 and 8.
Society president Stephen Ryan said informative presentations would be a major part of this year’s fair.
Gardening celebrities – such as succulent expert Attila Kapitany and edible plant specialist Karen Sutherland and Mr Ryan – will share their horticultural knowledge.
Claire Young, from Encouraging Women in Horticulture, will speak about furthering female involvement in horticulture on the Saturday.
An array of plants, gardening books, specialist and artisan gardening tools, outdoor furniture and power equipment will be on sale.
The fair, at Bolobek, 370 Mt Macedon Road, Mount Macedon, will run from 10am-4pm. Tickets cost $10 for an adult; and under-16s are admitted free.
