Our beautiful gardens from November 2024
Thank you to everyone who visited our open gardens and Garden Lovers Market in 2024, we hope you enjoyed the weekend!
​The 10 featured gardens (plus 2 bonus gardens) ranged from town and village gardens to larger country landscapes with sweeping vistas. Each of the cool-climate gardens showcased the owners’ love of planting while reflecting the different designs they each have for their gorgeous landscapes.
And of course all our open gardens were beautiful!

About Crookwell
​Crookwell is in the Upper Lachlan region that borders the Southern Highlands at the northern end of the Southern Tablelands. Its close proximity to Canberra (1.5 hours) and Sydney (3 hours) has added a new dimension to the travels of garden lovers from these major cities. This area is renowned for its magnificent long vistas, rolling hills and its four very distinct seasons.
It is a cool climate region with deep, fertile soils situated at 700 to 1100 metres above sea level that, while sometimes challenging, makes for superb garden development when the right cool climate plants are combined.
​
Our host gardens are a wonderful representation of what can be achieved in any garden, large or small, with vision, creative expression and a desire to connect with nature.
​
Crookwell town and the villages of the Upper Lachlan Shire welcome visitors. From Collector to Tuena, and Bigga to Taralga, come and meet our friendly locals and enjoy our many delights, including great food, stunning landscapes and comfy accommodation.
