THE annual Ararat Retirement Village Ladies Auxiliary Open Garden Day was an outstanding success, with hundreds of people touring through some of Ararat’s best gardens last Sunday.
Five local gardens were opened to the public – Kate and Wayne Gason’s garden in Barkly Street West, Maree and Russell Potter’s stunning garden in Jenkin Street, Bill and Penny Jones colourful garden in Banfield Street and Andrew McMillan’s family garden in Port Fairy Road.
In addition, the gardens of the Ararat Retirement Village were also on show.
Auxiliary President Helen Boling said the Ararat public have once again thrown their support behind the fundraiser.
