Join the Eltham SGA POD (a gardening group) when they visit Jenni Mitchell and Mervyn Hannan’s orchard garden at the Eltham South Fine Art Gallery. The orchard garden was first established in 1948 by Arthur and Grace Mitchell to produce food and produce for their own use and their pastry shop business. Today it is maintained by Jenni and Mervyn for food, beauty and a pleasant way of life. They use the abundance of fruit and vegetables to make their conserves, cakes and relishes. It surrounds the Eltham South Fine Art Gallery and painting and drawing workshops are often held in the garden. Jenni will show you around.
