Don’t miss this!
The next Braidwood Garden Club meeting is at Durran Durra Truffles. We will be hosted by club members Virginia and Dick Groot-Obbink and their truffle wonder-dog Bella.
Virginia and Dick’s Truffle farm has the perfect climate for growing the black winter truffle, Tuber Melanosporum. Set against a backdrop of the Tallaganda Range and harbouring an abundance of wildlife, the farm offers a unique truffle experience.
We shall enjoy a Truffle hunt demonstration followed by a fruit tree pruning class from the very knowledgeable Dennis Dempsey.
When: Meeting at Ryrie Park at 10.00am to Carpool for arrival at approximately 10.30 for Morning Tea. BYO picnic lunch to enjoy at the conclusion of the demonstrations.
Where: Durran Durra Truffles – 45 Brightside Rd, Durran Durra 2622
What to bring: Name Tag, warm clothing, Morning Tea to share (surname M-Z), lunch, chair.
The ground is uneven so please wear enclosed flat soled shoes.
Biosecurity: Competing fungi brought into the truffle orchard on shoes can be detrimental to the production of truffles so we ask you to step through a shallow foot-bath of bleach at the entrance to the orchard.
Finally,
Please remember to wear your badge!
