Community invited to Daffodil Day morning tea

Celebrating Daffodil Day a day early this year, volunteers at the Myrtleford Community Garden are set to host a morning tea tomorrow to raise funds for cancer research while enjoying a morning out in the garden. "There will be tea and coffee, a raffle and a cake stall as well, with hopefully some plants for sale," event organiser, Belinda Ramia said. "Our fundraising target this year is $400. "The Daffodil Day morning tea is aimed as a social event, as well as a fundraiser: we'll have a cuppa, discuss garden advice and what projects people are working on at the moment. "It's a great opportunity to get people outdoors while the weather is changing and it's great outside. "Anyone who wants to drop by on our usual Thursday mornings are very welcome." Volunteers spent last Thursday morning transplanting fruit trees from one side of the hill to the other. "Our fruit trees are not in the best place where they are now," Ms Ramia said. "We're planning to create a firepit area and hoping to terrace the hill a bit to make it more accessible." The MGC volunteers are busy planting seeds at the moment, to be ready for blooms in time for spring. President, Paul Reser, said Thursday's event will also see a Street Library officially installed, where people can leave their old gardening books and borrow others. "[I've] repurposed an old toolbox into a gardeners' Street Library," he said. "We decided to go with the gardening theme due to our Myrtleford Community Garden." The Myrtleford Community Garden's Daffodil Day morning tea is open to all, this Thursday, 21 August from 10am to midday, located on site in Lawrence Street. Wear a splash of yellow to match the daffodils and other Jonquils emerging throughout the area at this time of year.
