Yandina Community Gardens Open Day with Costa Georgiadis
Garden Guru Costa Georgiadis, well known from TV and Radio will be the main presenter at the Yandina Community Gardens Open Day.
The fundraising day for the Gardens hosts a series of engaging and edutaining talks and workshops for everyone from the emerging verandah or small block backyard gardener to the seasoned grower on an acreage and everyone in between.
Costaʼs two talks and garden ramble are the highlight of the day not only due to his engaging, interactive, hugely educational and fun presenting style. No matter how many times you have seen him, youʼre always bound to learn something new.
