With the Award entries closing in late September, the VSGP committee has been busy judging the 85 entries from 58 schools across the state, to determine this year’s winners.
Judging is never easy, especially with so many schools undertaking amazing garden projects or running inspirational school garden programs.
The ‘Best Edible Garden’ sponsored by Maxicrop and our new category ‘Best School Habitat Garden’ sponsored by Horticulture Media Association Australia were the most popular this year, with these gardens providing a clear link to learning.
We are looking forward to celebrating the achievements of schools with students and teachers, at our Award Presentation Ceremony which will be held on Thursday 21st November, on the Oak Lawn at the Melbourne Royal Botanic Gardens.
