Joining the EWHA committee has been a very rewarding experience for me. I have my own horticulture business and the social aspect of regularly connecting with others in the industry has been a highlight. It has also been very beneficial professionally as it has provided me with many networking and learning opportunities. When I joined a couple of years ago, I found the committee very supportive and welcoming. In my time as a volunteer I have acquired new skills, made new friends and have had a lot of fun along the way.

Tour of Nursery Cranbourne, Lunch & Explorer Bus Tour
EWHA invites you to the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria, Cranbourne this Spring to explore Conservation Horticulture up close! Join Mandy Thomson, Team Leader Nursery, as she shares the insights and surprises of propagating and caring for native plants.
The EWHA events are engaging, with a range of topics, locations and always knowledgeable guides. I’ve enjoyed them greatly and have met fantastic people through these connections. Highly recommend! Thank you to the committee for another lovely evening.

Vale Dawn Fleming
Earlier this month, we farewelled EWHA founder Dawn Fleming, who passed away on Saturday, 30th May. If not for Dawn’s drive and enthusiasm, our organisation would not be in existence today, such was her legacy. Here, EWHA’s inaugural elected Secretary Noelle Weatherley OAM reflects on Dawn’s life and contribution to EWHA.
EWHA is proudly supported by Gold sponsor Plantmark.
